Answer:

The case in which the Supreme Court ruled that police must inform criminal suspects of their legal rights upon their arrest was Miranda v. Arizona.

Explanation:

In 1963, Ernesto Arturo Miranda was arrested for robbery, kidnapping and sexual assault. He was interrogated by the police and immediately confessed. During the trial, the prosecutor only offered Miranda's confession as evidence. Miranda was found guilty of kidnapping and sexual assault, and sentenced to 20 to 30 years in prison. Miranda's lawyer appealed to the Arizona Supreme Court, but was dismissed. Then he appealed to the Supreme Court.

President Earl Warren, a former prosecutor, announced the court's verdict: Due to the compulsive nature of police interrogations, no confession can be granted unless the suspect has previously been instructed about his rights as set forth in the 5th and 6th Amendments to the Constitution. Accordingly, Miranda's sentence was overturned.

After the verdict, police officers nationwide were trained to educate suspects of their rights when arrested. This obligation to provide information is known today as the Miranda Warning.

Why did the founders establish a confederate system upon declaring independence?

MissTica

Answer:

Because they beleived it is impossible to organized all states from a central government. They believed they're too big

Explanation:

Under the Confederate system, the states that exist in this country was given with their own autonomy. But, all of them must come and discuss matters together regarding specific issues (such as national defense, taxation,etc)

The weakness in this stem is that the central government that oversee states cooperation do not have authority over the states. This means that if a state wanted to openly violate their duties or agreement, the central government can't really do anything about it.

But the founders did not have any experience in conducting a federal system and they did not wanted to turn into Monarchy. So they sticked with the confederate system until it's changed after the civil war.
