Voluntary and involuntary confessions

  Compare and contrast voluntary and involuntary confessions. How did the court apply these concepts to the Miranda decision? Provide and example of when a person is and is not in custody. Is there a difference between an interview and an interrogation? If a person waives his or her Miranda rights, how long is the waiver valid? Can a person change his or her mind? Can the police keep trying to get a suspect to talk until he or she agrees to do so without a lawyer? Should there be any exceptions to the rule that a person is to be informed of their rights? Discuss.
