They'd have to wait until legal representation got to you, and in that time police cannot ask you any questions

@DeluxedEdition Yeah that's I would think too. Like they make it sound as if you say, okay I want a lawyer that one is just going to magically appear lol. No, you're going to go to jail and most likely get one of those court appointed lawyers.

It just fascinates me how the officers read that Miranda, knowing full well people who say Yes I understand, don't understand a thing that was just read to them lol.

@twiigss no you can get an actual lawyer. But you stating to the cop that you have a lawyer isn't going to change the fact that you're going to jail.

I agree. It's the same way with a lot of laws. You can get arrested for breaking a law you didnt even know about. And that's not an excuse either. You're still going to jail. Idk about there but jail affects you being able to get govt assistance and a job.

That's exactly right. Miscreants are held until their lawyer arrives. Sometimes they are questioned anyway.

@4meAndyou Yeah, so what's the point of reading something that really isn't going to matter anyway? As I said before, to me reading Miranda is the same as when someone buys something with an agreement and they blindly agree to it because it's 5 pages long. People just want to buy their stuff and move on.

Same with police, they read that Miranda and then they ask, "do you understand these rights?" and people just say yes, but it's like when you're looking at them it's as if Miranda is just a formality because regardless they still question you. Of course you can agree to not answer their questions without a lawyer.
