Parents expect that if police question their child, certain protections will be followed. One of the most important is the requirement that law enforcement read the Miranda rights before custodial questioning begins. But in real situations, especially those involving younger teenagers, officers sometimes proceed without providing the required warning. When that oversight goes unnoticed early in a criminal case, the problem may not come to light until the juvenile court process is already underway.
This audio explains why this mid-case discovery matters, how Arizona courts view Miranda violations involving minors, and how the defense team at CHM Law can use this new evidence to strengthen a juvenile’s case. These situations require careful attention because officers do not always recognize the difference between speaking with a child and speaking with an adult. Minors process pressure differently, understand constitutional rights differently, and respond to police interrogation differently. When those rights are overlooked, it opens the door for powerful legal defenses.
