Talk:Ernesto Miranda

message: The last few sentences of this article - those describing Miranda's death and the escape of his killer - are so perfectly ironic that they seem possibly an urban myth.  Can this be confirmed anywhere?  I'd really like to see a reference attached to that last paragraph because it seems almost fictional (and is written in a suitably mythic manner).
: I agree. I can find no references to Miranda giving out autographed cards, and from what I knew of him previously it seems out of line with his character. Secondly, a policeman would not pick up a rights card and read it - that is patently ludicrous. I am rewriting that section, although the whole article should be put up to scrutiny. --Edwin Herdman 10:06, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Alright, I've edited that out. However, sources seem to disagree as to whether there was just one suspect or multiple ones - the American Heritage source I botched into the article says there were suspects, plural, but another source said there was only one. More research is needed. --Edwin Herdman 10:14, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ironic ending 

message: The page says "in November, 2006, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Miranda's case." November '06 hasn't yet begun. Can somebody please correct this?
Miranda was convicted again due to a confession made to his wife? I thought he wasn't married? Keppa 20:09, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  A picture of Ernesto 

message: Yes the famous Miranda Rights law is named for an Ernesto Miranda who was was convicted of Rape in Phoenix , ARizona in 1963 partly on the basis of his own confession to police interrogaters. A few years later the SUpreme Court reversed his conviction in a 5-4 decision along with three other men in similar cases. Upon this ruling it was stated that police must advise a person of their rights. This is taken from an original article in an old Life Magazine.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.16.226.118 (talk) 07:06, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Miranda Rights 

message: The line, "After his release, Miranda spent most of his time in poorly kept bars and cheap hotels in rough sections of Phoenix," seems a little off of a neutral viewpoint, and I don't see any sources for it. I'll go through the article and look out for any other cases. CharmlessCoin (talk) 21:33, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
