[edit] Reverting Miranda v Arizona

The article states:

"The Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination requires law enforcement officials to advise a suspect interrogated in custody of his rights to remain silent and to obtain an attorney. Arizona Supreme Court reversed and remanded."

The Fifth Amendment provides the right against self-incrimination, however it is the Sixth Amendment that provides for the right of council. The article, as it was, stated that the Fifth Amendment gives the right to council which is completely false.

Sixth Amendment: In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.192.196.87 (talk • contribs)

OK; I apologize. I'm looking at the thing, and to be honest, it's a bit wordy, but perhaps it should say both fifth and sixth. -Patstuart(talk)(contribs) 01:32, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
