Task: Police Questioning of In-Custody Suspects
Missouri v. Seibert, 542 U.S. 600 (2004).
A Mirandized statement that is taken after officers have already
questioned the suspect pre-Miranda on the same crime and as a
two-step process to undermine Miranda is not valid and will not be
admitted in the prosecution’s case.
A police tactic of getting the suspect to “let the cat out of the bag”
pre-Miranda invalidates subsequent Mirandized statements.
