"You do have the right to remain silence, what you say and what you do will use against you in the court of law". What do they mean by that? Please explain.|||It means that if you make any incriminating statements, that the arresting officer may use them to further your conviction in a court of law. Basically saying, you have the right to remain silent, i.e. not answer their questions and not self incriminate Anything you say can, and will, be used against you in a court of law, i.e. incriminate yourself.
Then they tell you you can get an attorney and if you can afford one, one will be appointed to you at no cost to you, i.e. free legal services.
Every person who is being arrested, MUST be read this before ANY questioning takes place.
Make sense?|||That they dont have to talk until they get a lawyer so they dont incriminate themselves and say something that would go against them.|||Basically you don't have to tell them anything. But if you choose to speak or do something stupid without a lawyer present they can use it in court to convict you.|||Miranda Rights? Something like that. Unsure of the spelling. They are required to say that so you are aware you have the right to keep quiet and not answer any questions. Also, that you have the right to a lawyer and if you can't afford it, you'll get a state appointed lawyer.|||That is from a US Supreme Court decision Miranda v. Arizona, and is commonly referred to a Miranda rights.
It was the Court's way of making sure someone accused of a crime is permitted legal representation before questioning.|||It means what it says...they can use your statements against you in court...as when the arresting officer testifies that you shouted: "I didn't mean to kill him...he just made me so mad I had to hit him!" When the judge/jury hear that, you are apt to be convicted. if you don't want to convict yourself in court, shut up when being arrested.|||That's the "Miranda" warning - named after the Supreme Court decison/ruling that, unless they warn you, any confession that you make will be inadmissable in court.
So, if you scream, "I DID IT! I DID IT!" before the warning, they can't use that against you. The other important part of the Miranda warning is that they have to tell you you can consult with a lawyer before you answer any of their questions, and if you don;t have a lawyer, they have to get one for you.|||They are reading you your Miranda rights. And they don't have to read those to you when you are arrested. Only if you are going to be questioned.|||Miranda rights|||It means that once you're under arrest, whatever you say can be used against you in a court of law.|||in Britain we say
you do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence when you fail to mention something when questioned which you later rely on in court
do you under stand the caution|||1. Remain Silent
2. Remain Silent.
3. Briefly break your silence to demand counsel.

Oh, and study the Reid Method.
http://www.law.wayne.edu/Faculty/Fac_web鈥?/a>|||They are reciting the suspect's Miranda Rights. The arresting officer is obligated to read them their rights before questioning them concerning an alleged crime. Miranda Rights are some of the most important rights given to U.S. citizens. Remember--anything you say before you are read your Miranda Rights IS STILL ADMISSIBLE IN COURT. The laws are only required to recite your rights before questioning--because these are the laws of criminal precedings, they are the only ones that must be read to you--if you forfeit them without having heard them, that's your fault; you're still accountable.
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you do or say can be used against you in a court of law."
-Many people, stupidly, forfeit this right. The police are trained to try to get you to do so; when you are pulled over, "do you know why I stopped you?" This is a trick question. Saying "no" denies any criminal intent and will be used against you in court as such, even if you plead guilty. Saying "yes, officer, I think I was speeding" admits fault and makes pleading not guilty infinitely more difficult. Exercise your right to shut the **** up.
"You have the right to consult an attorney before speaking to the police and to have an attorney present during questioning now or in the future. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish."
-Always opt for your own attorney, unless you enjoy prison. It is your right. Doing so not only increases your odds of being found innocent, it protects your right to do it!

----------retired texas deputy sheriff----------|||It means you do not have to talk to a police officer. If you do choose to talk to a cop anything you say can be used against you. My advice is to always lawyer up.|||It means just that- You have the right to be slient and not say anything.
