Relationship of Escobedo to Miranda and their implications

Relationship of Escobedo to Miranda and their implications

In 1963, Ernesto Miranda was arrested for robbery and rape. After he was found guilty in a lower court, Miranda appealed on the issue that the police should have told him that he could have an attorney present during the interrogation. In 1966, Miranda won his appeal to the United States Supreme Court.

Miranda v. Arizona is still considered a landmark case among the rich history of U.S. Supreme Court cases. In essence, the court ruled that law enforcement officers must issue a statement, which has become known as the Miranda warning, prior to a police interrogation.
