Understanding and Applying the Miranda Decision

In this lesson students learn about the Supreme Court's decision in Miranda v. Arizona (1966). This case created the law that police have to read someone their rights before they are arrested, this includes the right to a lawyer.  They will use what they have learn and decide what they would have done in real, recent cases. One case, Yarborough v. Alvarado (2004), affects the rights of juveniles.
