A community for posts about the killing of Brian Thompson and the official suspect, Luigi Mangione.

This is not reddit and this is not the older sister comm on lemmy.world, so as long as your account's instance allows it, you don't have to use euphemisms or subtle implications, unless they're really funny. The killer is a folk hero and Brian Thompson deserved to be assassinated for social mass murder.

This community also allows memes, fanart, and relevant discussion of surrounding issues like healthcare and media coverage.

No, the rights remain, but police do have some requirements due to policy and procedure.

Per this lawyer blog:

Police are not required to read your Miranda rights before or during arrest. While some officers may choose to do so, they are only legally obligated to “Mirandize” suspects who are being questioned in custody.

It's a good read overall to get the history of what Miranda Rights are and why people feel so passionately about them. They're basically the 5th and 6th amendments, and reading them to the suspect reminds them that they have specific rights.

I believe you can't get the whole case thrown out, but if the rights were not read and the person has a decent enough lawyer much of the testimony given under duress can be called into question. This can cause issues in a case like this and prosecuting attorneys will have to fight that his testimony is still good. The jury is not going to like it.
