RR 4:99-100 Furthermore, a photograph at Pine Street Salvage’s sale counter shows Appellant selling scrap items on Keeling’s account the same day he returned the truck.

    Since John was in custody, what are the procedural steps the police were required to take once John began to incriminate himself? The police have no obligation to stop John Doe from making any statements. “Excited Utterance” made by a defendant before being questioned are admissible as statements given under Miranda advisement. Once the police begin to question John Doe regarding the theft, then they are required to read or provide Mr. Doe with his Miranda Warnings. Miranda rights (Miranda rule, Miranda warning) n. the requirement set by the U. S. Supreme Court in Miranda v. Alabama (1966) that prior to the time of arrest and any interrogation of a person suspected of a crime, he/she must be told that he/she has: "the right to remain silent, the right to legal counsel, and the right to be told that anything he/she says can be used in court against" him/her. Further, if the accused person confesses to the authorities, the prosecution must prove to the judge that the defendant was informed of them and knowingly waived those rights, before the confession can be introduced in the defendant's criminal trial. The warnings are known as "Miranda Rights" or just "rights." The Miranda rule supposedly prevents self-incrimination in violation of the Fifth Amendment to the U. S. Constitution. Sometimes there is a question of admissibility of answers to questions made by the defendant before he/she was considered a prime suspect, raising a factual issue as to what is a prime suspect and when does a person become such a suspect?…

    Nora’s relationship with Blanche, her mother, is one where she feels she can walk all over her which we see when despite Blanche’ s unwillingness Nora refuses to take no for an answer concerning her involvement in the Broadway musical. This does not, however, show that Nora has complete disrespect for Blanche as she speaks to Laurie about a plan to help their mother by saving enough money to buy them their own house. During a confrontation she also expresses that she feels badly for wanting to do the musical because of Blanche’s feelings. Nearer to the end of the play during an emotional confrontation we learn that Nora feels neglected by her mother and feels that all of her attention goes to Laurie.…

    A Field Training Officer (FTO), Rutledge (Author), is on patrol with a patrol officer. He has to type his first police report and is not doing a good job. His officer was disappointed at what he had read in his report; he’s going to show the rookie how it’s done. The officer’s report was not only 50% longer, but full of jargon. The rookie cop stated, “Why do we write like that?” “Because that’s the way we’ve always done it,” replied the officer. After years of being a cop and writing real police reports, Rutledge became a prosecutor. After numerous trails, Rutledge was still boggled at the way police reports were written. So he decided to ask other people in the field of criminal justice and the explanation was the same, “that’s the way we’ve always done it, and no one has bothered to ask why.” The problem is the style is all wrong and everyone is trained to write this way. Rutledge states, “Police reports should be written in the way that you would normally communicate information.” Police reports need to be correct, unclouded and believable otherwise law enforcement personnel will undoubtedly lose the case. During a trial police reports are designed to help the officer out not the criminal; consequently, the court has trouble understanding the reports due to the style, too much jargon, excess big words, and awe and not enough communicating what you know. Rutledge states, “Work smarter not harder.”…
