Supreme Court Rules Suspects Must State Silence To Invoke Miranda
In a 5-4 ruling, the court hold suspects must explicitly say they want to remain silent to halt questioning, aligning with requiring a clear request for a lawyer. The decision centered on Van Chester Thompkins who remained mostly silent during a three hour interrogation before implicating himself in a 2000 Michigan murder. Justice Kennedy wrote for the majority. Justice Sotomayor dissented, criticizing the ruling as overturning Miranda principles.
