Miranda Rights And Tsarnaev: Ashcroft Says U.S. Move Is The Right One : The Two-Way : NPR

Makes sense!

Miranda Rights And Tsarnaev: Ashcroft Says U.S. Move Is The Right One : The Two-Way : NPR: "Former Attorney General John Ashcroft helped create the framework for prosecuting those accused of terrorism, as part of the most recent Bush administration.

"The legal argument for the exception is that in times of exigency, where the public might be in danger, it is possible to interrogate an individual at some level in order to relieve the public of the danger, without first having given the Miranda warning," Ashcroft tells Rachel Martin, in an interview for Sunday's Weekend Edition."
