Hofstra Law Review
Abstract
The article focuses on the inadequacies of the Miranda rights protections for minors during custodial interrogations. It highlights how current practices, such as deceptive interrogation techniques, disproportionately affect minors who often lack the capacity to fully understand or voluntarily waive their rights. It underscores the need for legal reforms, such as mandating attorney consultation for minors before waiving their rights.
