Do you agree or disagree with the Supreme Court’s majority ruling in Yarborough v.Alvarado?Write a short paragraph describing your answer and connect the case to the Miranda v. Arizona decision.
I disagree with the Supreme Court’s majority ruling in Yarborough v. Alvarado. Miranda v. Arizona requires police to give warnings before custodial interrogation, but the Court upheld the finding that Alvarado was not in custody. Because Alvarado was only 17, I think his age should have been considered when deciding whether he felt free to leave. Taking age into account would help ensure that young people understand and receive the protections Miranda provides.
