There is no difference between Miranda Warnings and Miranda Rights?  True or false

• False

• True

What does interrogate mean?

• to reply

• to imprison

• to listen

The police must read you your Miranda Rights when you

• are put into the police car

• when the police want to interrogate you (ask you questions)

• on your way to your trial

• are taken to the police station

• when you are placed into a jail cell

• he must have been picked out of a police line-up by a witness

• he must be in jail

•  right after they are read to you

•  after you answer a question and you decide you don't want to talk anymore

•  all of the above

•  at any time during police questioning

If you are arrested and the police interrogate you but forget to read you your Miranda Warnings, the arrest

• the arrest is valid and still stands, the answers you gave to the questions is what is invalid and thrown out

• is invalid and must be thrown out, you get to go home

If the police take you into custody and do not read you your Miranda Rights and then question you, the statements obtained, such as a confession,

• 1. If you answer them, the responses can be used against you

• 3. Both 1 and 2

If you confess after you have been read your Miranda Rights, can the confession be used against you?

• no

If you confess before you are given your Miranda Warnings, the confession
