2/2 Response Officer Major administered field sobriety test; but did NOT use breathalyzer; advised son he was under arrest, but did NOT mirandize him. After bond posted, we learned Arlington police have history of causing accidents, taking payoffs!

So does fort Worth

The Miranda warning is only required when someone is being interviewed or interrogated by police. Police are not required to mirandize every person that is arrested simply based on being arrested. If someone is arrested, and the cops try to initiate a conversation with the detained person, the arrested person does not have to speak or respond, but if they do, anything that’s said to the cops, without the person having been mirandized first, cannot be used against the detainee in court.
