    Speak Up! - View Question #390

    printer friendly version

    Question: Do the police have to read me my rights before they can talk to me?

    Answer: No. The police do not have to read you your rights before they talk to you but they must read you your rights before they arrest you. The point of arrest comes when they actually take you under their control by handcuffing you and/or taking you into their control where you do not have the freedom to leave if you want to.

    If they are investigating a crime or they think you may have some information, they can just ask you questions without first reading you your rights.
