MIRANDA RIGHTS Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966) Before a law enforcement officer may question you regarding the possible commission of a crime, he or she must read you your Miranda Rights. He or she must also make sure that you understand them.

WARNING OF RIGHTS

1. You have the right to remain silent and refuse to answer questions. Do you understand?

2. Anything you do say may be used against you in a court of law. Do you understand?

3. You have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to the police and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future. Do you understand?

4. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish. Do you understand?

5. If you decide to answer questions now without an attorney present you will still have the right to stop answering at any time until you talk to an attorney. Do you understand?

6. Knowing and understanding your rights as I have explained them to you, are you willing to answer my questions without an attorney present?

Exercise the right to Remain Silent. It is your constitutional right to keep silent in the event that you get arrested. Do not answer any questions without having a Colorado criminal defense lawyer present during an interrogation. Do not confide in anyone, including members of your family. There is always a risk that your statements may be used against you in court as mentioned during the arrest.

Statements are not limited to verbal expression. Body language, like nodding for example, and non-verbal utterances like shrugging are considered forms of statements. Clearly ask the person or people who have taken you into custody if you are "under arrest". If you are not under arrest, exercise your right to leave right away. If you are under arrest, preserve silence, and clearly state that you "want to speak with your lawyer". It is your right to consult with a lawyer as stated in the

Miranda Rights. Do not authorize any form of search in yourself, your home, your car, or your place of work. The fourth amendment states your right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. Do not allow any law enforcement officer or private investigator to search any of your belongings, personal articles, bags, homes, car, or office.

Do not agree to take a lie polygraph or lie detector test without your Colorado criminal defense lawyer being present. The polygraph test results are considered inadmissible in court. Police officials may claim to tell you the polygraph results have given you away and that it clearly pinpoints your being guilty. You in turn may be hoaxed to reply and answer questions, and make actual statements that are admissible in court. Never take a polygraph test without discussing this with your Colorado criminal defense lawyer.

Demand to exercise your right to contact a Colorado criminal defense lawyer. After you have been taken into custody, you are given reasonable numbers of phone calls to contact family and your attorney. Tell a member of your family to get in touch with Gregg Greer.
