P. 187
Task-Questioning of In-Custody Suspects and Invocation of
Silence
Berghuis v. Thompkins, 130 S.Ct. 2250 (2010).
A suspect’s silence during interrogation is not an invocation of their
right to remain silent.
An invocation of the right to remain silent under Miranda must be clear
and unambiguous.
