Contents Don't talk to police : except in the present tense & in the fewest words possible -- Don't plead the Fifth : because the Supreme Court has limited its protection -- Plead the Sixth : your constitutional right to legal representation.
Summary "Using actual case histories of innocent men and women exonerated after decades in prison because of information they voluntarily gave to police, Professor Duane demonstrates the critical importance of a constitutional right not well or widely understood by the average American. Reflecting the most recent attitudes of the Supreme Court, Professor Duane argues that it is now even easier for police to use your own words against you. This lively and informative guide explains what everyone needs to know to protect themselves and those they love." -- Back cover
