The Right to Remain Silent
Read the following case scenario:
The former John Smith, who changed his name to “The Left Hand of God” and is known to his followers as “Hand,” is a suspected terrorist. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents believe that he is planning an imminent attack somewhere in Capital City. Under duress to prevent the attack, three DHS agents and three FBI agents storm into Hand’s house, burst into his bedroom where he is in bed with a female guest, and point shotguns at him. They demand to know what he is planning. No Miranda warnings are read. Hand tells them that he has hired Alex “Boom Boom” Jaxon, a known explosives expert, to plant a bomb in the Capital City Arena, with a timer to go off in five hours when the arena will be filled with 20,000 people for the mayor’s speech.
Jaxon is known to be in Central City, which is four hours away. He is arrested by Central City police and calls his lawyer in Capital City, who tells him he will meet him there and to remain silent. The lawyer then tells Central City police that they are not to question Jaxon until they arrive in Capital City and the lawyer is present.
Officer McFadden, who knows Jaxon is a fanatic cat lover, drives Jaxon to Capital City. McFadden knows that DHS, FBI, and Capital City police are searching the arena, but he is afraid they won’t find the bomb in time. The mayor refuses to cancel his speech.McFadden tells Jaxon that the event that night at the arena is in fact a cat show and that it is a shame all those hundreds of innocent cats will die. Jaxon tells McFadden to drive directly to the arena and leads him right to the bomb, which is defused. A crying Jaxon states that he doesn’t mind killing people but he would never harm any cats.
Research Fifth Amendment cases, including Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 10 Ohio Misc. 9, 86 S. Ct. 1602, 16 L. Ed. 2d 694 (1966) (Links to an external site.), which involves custodial interrogation and the right against self-incrimination.
