The wording used when a person is read the Miranda Warning, also known as being ‘Mirandized,’ is clear and direct:

  • You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?

Are there exceptions to when the officer needs to read Miranda Rights?

Answer: If they’re not really interrogating about an existing crime, they would not read the Miranda rights. An example would be a DUI arrest. In that instance, most of the evidence is gathered prior to the arrest; there’s really not interrogation after the fact, therefore in many of those cases there is not a Miranda warning given.
