#attorney for burglary charges in Phoenix

[anonymous-chicken-was-taken]

What the Ace Attorney Villains Could Get Charged With (to the best of my research) (in America laws)

Game One

!Disclaimer! I know nothing about law take this with a grain of salt I was just bored.

Frank Sahwit

Burglary - This one is obvious. He was a thief. He stole stuff. How many charges exactly depends on how many he admits to or can be traced back to him.

Breaking and entering - At least one charge from Cindy's case, potentially more depending on any other burglary charges.

Assault and battery - Hitting Cindy with the Thinker. The assault may or may not be aggravated depending on whether it was technically intended to be used in a way that would readily and likely cause death.

Second-degree murder - This one could potentially be brought down to voluntary manslaughter. It depends whether he intended to kill Cindy when he hit her, and if he was in enough emotional distress that hitting her would be semi-justifiable.

Incrimination - In pinning the blame on Larry, he did this.

Fraud - Even if pretending to be a newspaper salesman to steal from people didn't constitute fraud, Payne stated this as his job. This means he lied about his job to the court by saying he was a newspaper salesman. Which is fraud.

Perjury

Redd White

Incrimination - This is when he tried to frame Maya, and when he shifted the blame on Phoenix. This may lead to two charges.

Obstruction of justice - In incriminating Maya, he tampered with the crime scene. Plus, blackmailing a judge is probably illegal and probably falls under this.

Corruption - He was a corporate official, which makes some of this other stuff constitute corruption, mostly the blackmail.

Blackmail - Speaking of, he could be faced with countless charges of this, depending how much could be tied back to him.

Assault and battery - Punching someone in the face multiple times is illegal, kids. So is hitting someone on the head. If Frank gets aggravated for the thinker, so does he. Phoenix's assault probably wasn't aggravated, though, as I doubt his rings/fists would be ruled a deadly weapon considering the intent.

Intimidation - His threat for an "accident" to happen to Phoenix is more than enough to be considered a threat of violence.

First-degree murder - His murder of Mia was completely premeditated. There's little he can do about this.

Criminal threat - Threatening to injure or kill someone is bad. And using flowery language like "accident" doesn't negate it.

Wiretapping - While he didn't actually put the wiretap there, it can be inferred he ordered it. This makes it conspiracy, so there is some shared guilt.

Conspiracy - The wiretapping was a joint effort between him and April. He may try to claim otherwise, but its degree of success is debatable.

Workplace abuse - It's a real good sign when your secretary fears you murdering her like you did to that defense attorney a couple days ago, Redd, I'm sure you could never get in legal trouble for that.

Perjury

Dee Vasquez

Racketeering - Oftentimes, people in organized crime are automatically found guilty of this. This being charging someone for a service they haven't requested (think mafia "protection").

Blackmail - This one is also pretty obvious. Jack Hammer.

Obstruction of justice - This is her tampering with the crime scene when she moved the body. Also potentially when she tried to kill a lawyer involved with the case.

Attempted murder - By proxy, two charges, when she ordered her goons to kill Phoenix and Maya.

Voluntary manslaughter - Hammer was trying to kill her, she's got that justified self-defense plea. Not that it matters much, because...

Countless other mafia-related charges - We don't know the exact details of her mafia connections, but she's entrenched enough to have goons. We can safely say she did a lot of illegal stuff in organized crime.

Intimidation - Mafia goons trying to kill you is pretty intimidating. That and the threats of erasure.

Criminal threat - See above threats of erasure.

Conspiracy - She works together with Sal Manella in the obstruction of justice.

Perjury

Manfred von Karma

Forgery - He's known to forge evidence constantly.

Obstruction of justice - See above. Plus, tazing lawyers and stealing their evidence is pretty frowned upon. So is intimidating witnesses.

Assault and battery - The evidence room fiasco. Potentially aggravated depending on the actual voltage of the tazer and if he lied about it or not, but given they didn't die, probably not.

Theft - He stole evidence from the evidence room.

Intimidation - Brandishing a taser at someone is generally considered this.

Corruption - Being a government official, most if not all this stuff constitutes corruption.

Incrimination - Due to his conspiracy with Yogi, he is guilty of attempting to frame Miles by proxy.

First-degree murder - He sees a gun and a man he doesn't like in the elevator, and he does think about it before doing it. Thus, it is premeditated and first-degree. Also, given his conspiracy with Yogi, he may also be guilty of murdering Hammond by proxy.

Child abuse - Both Miles and Franziska could push for this, even just with what we have explicitly stated. Depending on interpretation and how poor of a guardian he was, this charge could have some serious ground to stand on.

Emotional abuse - Pretty much the same hat as the child abuse charge, only less uncertain.

Criminal threat - I don't know what you want from me, man. He threatens everyone all the time.

Torture - I haven't played investigations yet, but from what I'm looking at, he psychologically tortured a guy, so. That's pretty non Geneva convention certified of him, even if this isn't a war.

Workplace abuse - Again, this is hearsay because investigations, but he's pretty crappy to his subordinates, it seems.

Solicitation - He heavily encourages Yogi to kill Hammond and frame Miles.

Conspiracy - He provides Yogi with the means to kill Hammond, so while there is technically no mutual agreement, he's also guilty of this.

Perjury

Damon Gant

Corruption - As a government official, a great deal of his crimes constitute corruption.

Forgery - A great portion of the conflict of his case comes from the forged evidence he made.

Obstruction of justice - Most of the rest of the conflict of his case comes from the evidence he withheld.

Blackmail - Quite a severe case of it, at that. Multiple years against a single person is nothing to sneeze at.

Incrimination - That's what it was when he made it look like Ema killed Neil.

First-degree murder - He thought about killing Neil long enough to consider the pros and cons of doing so, and went through with it. That's pretty premeditated. A good lawyer may be able to get him down to second degree for Goodman, but it's highly doubtful considering.

Conspiracy - He had Lana hide Goodman's body, and while there was blackmail involved, there was still a mutual agreement. Thus, conspiracy.

Concealment of death - There are a few different names for this, but it's when he had Lana hide Goodman's body. It was unsuccessful, but there were still significant steps taken to have it happen on both their parts, so he may get a partial sentence.

Criminal threat - He makes so many threats.

Workplace abuse - I think using a pipe organ to punish your employees violates some international laws or something. Speaking of which...

Torture - Of the audio variety. Seriously this guy is the police how did this fly for so long that is BAD.

Vigilantism - This is actually very interesting. Despite the fact that he is a member of law enforcement and Joe Darke did kill multiple people, he still used illegal means to bring him to some form of justice. Depending on how much he wanted Darke convicted, it could be argued that his actions constitute vigilantism.

Assault and battery - One case of assault against Goodman, and two charges of battery against Neil and Goodman. Assault is the threat of violence and the means to follow through, and battery is the actual act of violence; seeing as Neil was unconscious, he could not have been threatened. The assault was aggravated, as a knife is a deadly weapon.

Perjury

GAME TWO

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Analysis of the killings from the  Ace Attorney  original trilogy (from the perspective of a law school student, version 2.0):

PHOENIX WRIGHT, ACE ATTORNEY

The First Turnabout: Second-degree murder under the felony murder rule (FMR). This one's a bit tricky since the defense can argue that Frank Sawhit panicked, meaning he didn't intend to kill Cindy Stone, which would lead to an involuntary manslaughter charge. However, since Ace Attorney apparently takes place in California, FMR rules apply. Frank killed someone while committing a felony (burglary), which means he can be charged with murder even if he didn't intend to kill Cindy. Heck, the prosecutor could even argue that he should get a first-degree murder charge, that's how tough the FMR rules can be.

Turnabout Sisters: First degree murder. Redd White came to Mia Fey's office planning to kill her and he carried out his plan.

Turnabout Samurai: Involuntary manslaughter with a self-defense claim. Dee Vazquez didn't intend to kill Jack Hammer and she only struck back in order to protect herself. So basically, she royally fucked up since she could've been acquitted on all charges. Side note, I absolutely hate this case since this is NOT WHAT MURDER IS.

Turnabout Goodbyes: For Yanni Yogi, it's first-degree murder and conspiracy since, with Manfred von Karma's help, he took part in a plot to kill Robert Hammond and carried it out. For Manfred von Karma, it's second-degree murder. Von Karma intended to kill Gregory and carried it out, but didn't necessarily plan for Gregory's death in advance. However, since we're in California, we could use the "twinkling of an eye" approach, which means Von Karma could've premeditated the plan to kill Gregory on the spot. So Von Karma's charges could potentially bump up to first-degree.

Rise from the Ashes: For the murder of Neil Marshall, it's potentially first-degree murder. Damon Gant planned out Neil's death and carried out his plan. For the murder of Bruce Goodman, it's second-degree murder. Gant clearly didn't plan to kill Bruce in advance, but he did intend to kill him without reasonable provocation.

------------------------

JUSTICE FOR ALL

The Lost Turnabout: Second-degree murder. Richard Wellington panicked and killed Dustin Prince, which means this is an intentional killing but without premeditation. Also, he killed a cop, which is not a good look in court.

Reunion and Turnabout: First-degree murder with conspiracy charges. Ini Miney and Morgan Fey planned out Turner Grey's murder and followed through with their plan.

Turnabout Big Top: First-degree murder. Acro planned out Regina Berry's murder and followed through with his plan. Russell Berry was not his intended target but due to transferred intent, he's still guilty of first-degree. All that needs to be proven is that Acro knew someone would die because of his actions and wanted this result to occur.

Farewell, My Turnabout: First-degree murder with conspiracy charges. Matt Engarde paid Shelly De Killer to kill Juan Corrida and their murder plot was carried out. So even if Engarde didn't actually kill the man, he's still guilty since he masterminded the whole thing.

------------------------

TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS

Turnabout Memories: Second-degree murder (possibly first-degree under the "twinkling of an eye" approach). Dahlia actually planned to kill Phoenix Wright but was forced to change her plans after Phoenix's scuffle with Doug Swallow. So...it's technically 2nd degree but the prosecutor could argue she premeditated Doug's murder on the spot. In my opinion, it's a reasonable argument since she already had plans to kill Phoenix.

The Stolen Turnabout: First-degree murder. Luke Atmey planned out Kane Bullard's murder and followed through with his scheme.

Recipe for Turnabout: First-degree murder. An argument could be made for second-degree since Tigre only murdered Elg after the man won the lottery, indicating that it may have been an on-the-spot decision. However, a prosecutor could argue that Tigre planned to kill Elg in the first place since he was carrying a vial of poison on him. So, second-degree is the safe call, but first-degree is a strong possibility.

Turnabout Beginnings: Well, for starters, Terry Fawles should've been acquitted since his "murder victim" is alive. But for the actual case, Dahlia is guilty of first-degree. She planned out Valerie Hawthorne's death and followed through with her scheme.

Bridge to the Turnabout: Voluntary manslaughter. It's tempting to say second-degree but a really good defense attorney could argue that there are outside factors that need to be taken into account. It was in the heat of the moment, Godot was facing off against the woman who ruined his life, and his girlfriend's sister was in danger. Plus, Godot has an imperfect, defense-of-others claim since he had to stop Dahlia from killing Maya. So, I wouldn't say he gets second-degree due to these mitigating factors. He did intentionally kill someone but the circumstances should lower the charges. By the way, if anyone's confused about voluntary manslaughter, it's basically "excusable murder". You intentionally killed someone and it wasn't justifiable...BUT, the circumstances surrounding the murder are that a reasonable person would probably be driven into killing someone. It's still bad but the judge and jury understands why you did it.

What's the Difference between Burglary and Theft?

When people discuss stealing or the taking of personal property, terms like "robbery", "burglary" and "theft" are often thrown around interchangeably. While these terms tend to be synonymous for the purposes of casual conversation, Arizona law makes a clear distinction between burglary and theft.

Theft in Arizona Under Arizona law, theft broadly refers to an act where an individual, without consent, takes and controls another person's property with the intention of keeping the property from the rightful owner.

Burglary Offenses in Arizona Burglary differs from theft in that taking property is not necessary to be charged with burglary. While theft can be involved in a burglary, Arizona law says that burglary is the act of unlawfully entering a structure or dwelling with the intention of committing a crime inside the structure. Burglary is a felony offense that is divided into three classes in Arizona.

Former Dallas Mavericks star Harrison Barnes and Philadelphia Eagles player Malik Jackson have decided to pay for the funeral of Atatiana Jefferson — the black Texas woman who was fatally shot by police inside her own home.

“My wife and I wanted to do something for that family,” Barnes, 27, said of himself and wife Brittany to reporters in a video posted by NBC Sports.

Jefferson’s story is especially heartbreaking for Barnes as he considered himself a member of the Texas community after playing with the Mavericks for three seasons.

“It was a tragic situation that happened. No one should be killed during a wellness check,” Barnes said, adding that he hopes his contribution will help alleviate some of the stress Jefferson’s tragic death has brought on her family.

“The biggest thing is, anytime someone has to go through that, the last thing you want to have to worry about is trying to come up with the money for a funeral,” Barnes told reporters.

Jackson, 29, stepped up to the plate shortly after, according to Lee Merritt, the attorney for Jefferson’s family.

He explained to The Dallas Morning News that Barnes and his wife are covering more than half of Jefferson’s service — about 90 percent — and Jackson will pay for the remainder.

“They did it because they cared,” Merritt told the local outlet, adding that the athletes wanted to keep their donations low-key.

Police responded to a welfare call in the 1200 block of E. Allen Avenue at around 2:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 12. A neighbor called authorities to report Jefferson’s front door was open, according to CNN.

“Responding officers searched the perimeter of the house and observed a person standing inside the residence near a window. Perceiving a threat the officer drew his duty weapon and fired one shot striking the person inside the residence,” the Fort Worth Police Department said in a statement.

The 28-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene.

Body-camera footage, released by the police and shared by multiple outlets, showed two officers walking around the side of the house as one officer approached a closed first-floor window with a flashlight. After raising his gun, he screamed, “Put your hands up! Show me your hands!”

Earlier this week it was revealed that Aaron York Dean, the officer who shot Jefferson, wasn’t responding to a wellness check call, despite his neighbor’s request to do so.

Fort Worth Interim Police Chief Ed Kraus told reporters on Tuesday that Dean was responding to an “open structure call” when he opened fire on Jefferson and killed her.

Jefferson had been playing video games with her 8-year-old nephew when the call was made, but the neighbor had simply asked for cops to check on the Texas woman out of concern for her safety, after noticing that her front door was open.

“The information came from the neighbor to the call-takers and while it was relayed to the dispatch, it was determined to be an open structure call,” he said, according to CNN.

An “open structure” or “open door call” is much different than a wellness check, Michael “Britt” London, president of the Phoenix Law Enforcement Association, told the outlet.

In the case of a burglary, officers are trained to look for signs that indicate someone has broken into the home, such as a smashed window or broken-down door.

“You are at a higher sensitivity to what is going on with that house,” London told CNN. “You have to be ready for anything. You are taking more of your environment in consideration to be ready for a surprise if there’s one.”

The responding officers did examine the Fort Worth property, with body-camera footage released by the police and shared by multiple outlets showing them walking around the side of the house.

As one officer approached a closed first-floor window with a flashlight, he raised his gun and screamed, “Put your hands up! Show me your hands!” The officer, later identified as Dean, apparently never identified himself as police before firing.

However, that response raised questions by many officials, including Jeff Halstead, a retired Fort Worth chief of police and police consultant.

“They were standing literally at the front door, they could see whether the door was kicked on or not. The lights were on, there was evidence that people were living there, there were toys,” Halstead told CNN. “Why they advanced to an extremely dark backyard area without at least ringing the doorbell or checking the entrance? That’s extremely concerning.”

On Monday afternoon, Dean resigned hours before being fired, NBC News reports. He was originally placed on administrative leave and had been with FWPD since April 2018.

Dean was later taken into custody by his former department and charged with the murder of Jefferson, according to a statement from the Fort Worth Police Department.

Following the news, Merritt, the Jefferson Family’s attorney, issued a statement on behalf of his clients and said that while they were “relieved” with the arrest and charges, there was still work to be done in their community.

“The family of Atatiana Jefferson is relieved that Aaron Dean has been arrested & charged with murder,” Merritt wrote on Twitter. “We need to see this through to a vigorous prosecution & appropriate sentencing. The City of Fort Worth has much work to do to reform a brutal culture of policing.”

In a statement on Facebook, Merritt added, “Aaron Dean has been arrested. It’s a good start. He’s a bad apple. But don’t forget the bunch … it’s bad too (7 fatal police shootings in under 6 months) And who are picking these apples. There’s blood on their hands too. Accountability in Fort Worth is the long game.”

When contacted by PEOPLE, a spokesperson for the Fort Worth Police Department had no comment in regard to Merritt’s claims.

Man charged with killing 2 Arizona girls who went missing

This undated photo released by the Tucson Police Department on Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018 shows Christopher Matthew Clements, 36. Tucson Police Chief Chris Magnus said Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018, that Clements was indicted a day earlier by a grand jury on murder and kidnapping charges in the deaths of 6-year-old Isabel Celis and 13-year-old Maribel Gonzalez, who went missing in 2012 and 2014. (Tucson Police Department via AP)

TUCSON, Ariz. –  A registered sex offender jailed since last year has been charged in the kidnapping and killing of two Arizona girls who went missing in 2012 and 2014, authorities announced Saturday.

Christopher Matthew Clements, 36, was indicted on Friday by a grand jury on 21 criminal counts, including murder and kidnapping charges in the deaths of 6-year-old Isabel Celis and 13-year-old Maribel Gonzalez, Tucson Police Chief Chris Magnus said.

Celis went missing from her Tucson home in April 2012, and her body was discovered in what was described as a rural area in March 2017.

Gonzalez' body was discovered in June 2014 in the Avra Valley community near Tucson, not far from where Celis' remains would be found three years later.

Magnus and other officials held a news conference to announce the indictment. But they declined to answer questions from reporters and did not disclose how the girls died or what prompted authorities to investigate Clements in the killings, except to say that the FBI in 2017 learned Clements might have information about the death of Celis.

He then provided information to authorities that led to the discovery of Celis' remains, Magnus said. Investigators later discovered additional pieces of evidence, but they did not describe Saturday what they had found.

Clements had already been in a Phoenix-area jail for more than a year facing other charges when the indictment was issued.

Pima County Attorney Barbara LaWall called the identification of Clements as the killer of the girls "long overdue."

"The heart-wrenching tragedies of Maribel Gonzalez and Isabel Celis' murders have been compounded by a very long, long wait for justice," she said.

Celis' father reported the girl missing on the morning of April 21, 2012, after he went to her bedroom and she was not there.

Police previously did not name suspects, but they said they found "suspicious circumstances around a possible entry point" into the home.

A medical examiner last year ruled Isabel Celis' death as "homicide by unspecified means." A heavily redacted autopsy report did not indicate how she died.

Gonzalez went missing on her way to a friend's house. Her body was found days later.

Clements made his first court appearance Saturday morning. He does not yet have an attorney but will be assigned one at a Sept. 24 arraignment.

Clements was being held on a $2 million bond, Tucson Police Sgt. Pete Dugan said.

Clements was jailed in April 2017 on suspicion of burglary, theft and fraudulent schemes, Maricopa County Sheriff's Sgt. Bryant Vanegas said Saturday. Vanegas did not have information about when Clements might be transferred to southern Arizona to face charges in the case of the girl's killings.

The indictment made public Saturday did not provide any details about how the girls were killed or what evidence linked Clements to the killings. It said he was also charged with burglary, theft and possession or distribution of child pornography in other cases dating from 2012 through 2016.

Clements was charged and convicted in Oregon in 1998 of sex-related crimes and was required to register as a sex offender. He was charged and convicted in 2006 in Bay City, Florida, for failing to register, according to Florida law enforcement records.

He was also charged in 2008 in Tucson with failing to register as a sex offender. He was convicted and sentenced to serve 46 months in prison and five years of supervised release

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed that sentence in 2011, finding that the federal law requiring him to register as a sex offender within three days of moving to a new home was passed after his 1998 conviction and therefore did not apply to his crime.

TUCSON, Ariz. — A man jailed since last year has been charged in the kidnapping and killing of two Arizona girls who went missing in 2012 and 2014, authorities announced Saturday.

Christopher Matthew Clements, 36, was indicted on Friday by a grand jury on 21 criminal counts, including murder and kidnapping charges in the deaths of 6-year-old Isabel Celis and 13-year-old Maribel Gonzalez, said Tucson Police Chief Chris Magnus.

This undated photo released by the Tucson Police Department on Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018 shows Christopher Matthew Clements.

Celis went missing from her Tucson home in April 2012 and her body was discovered in what was described as a rural area in March 2017.

Gonzalez’ body was discovered in June 2014 in the Avra Valley community near Tucson, not far from where Celis’ remains would be found three years later.

Magnus and other officials held a news conference to announce the indictment but declined to answer questions from reporters and did not disclose how the girls died or what prompted authorities to investigate Clements in the killings, except to say that the FBI in 2017 learned Clements might have information about the death of Celis.

Today in History - Miranda

Today in 1963, police arrested Ernesto Miranda and charge him with kidnapping and rape.  His conviction was ultimately set aside by the United States Supreme Court in the landmark case Miranda v. Arizona.

  Ernesto Arturo Miranda (March 9, 1941 – January 31, 1976) was a laborer whose conviction on kidnapping, rape, and armed robbery charges based on his confession under police interrogation was set aside in the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case (Miranda v. Arizona), which ruled that criminal suspects must be informed of their right against self-incrimination and their right to consult with an attorney before being questioned by police. This warning is known as a Miranda warning.

After the Supreme Court decision set aside Miranda’s initial conviction, the state of Arizona retried him. At the second trial, with his confession excluded from evidence, he was again convicted.

Early life

Ernesto Arturo Miranda was born in Mesa, Arizona on March 9, 1941. Miranda began getting in trouble when he was in grade school. Shortly after his mother died, his father remarried. Miranda and his father didn’t get along very well; he kept his distance from his brothers and stepmother as well. Miranda’s first criminal conviction was during his eighth grade year. The following year, he was convicted of burglary and sentenced to a year in reform school.

In 1956, about a month after his release from the reform school, Arizona State Industrial School for Boys (ASISB), he fell afoul of the law once more and was returned to ASISB. Upon his second release from reform school he relocated to Los Angeles, California. Within months of his arrival in LA, Miranda was arrested (but not convicted) on suspicion of armed robbery and for some sex offenses. After two and a half years in custody the 18-year-old Miranda was extradited back to Arizona.

He drifted through the South for a few months, spending time in jail in Texas for living on the street without money or a place to live, and was arrested in Nashville for driving a stolen car. Because he had taken the stolen vehicle across state lines, Miranda was sentenced to a year and a day in the federal prison system, serving time in Chillicothe, Ohio and later in Lompoc, California.

The next couple of years Miranda kept out of jail, working at various places, until he became a laborer on the night loading dock for the Phoenix produce company. At that time, he started living with Twila Hoffman, a 29-year-old mother of a boy and a girl by another man, from whom she could not afford a divorce.

Confession without rights, start of Miranda v. Arizona

On March 13, 1963, Miranda’s truck was spotted and license plates recognized by the brother of a 17-year-old kidnapping and rape victim, Lois Ann Jameson (the victim had given the brother a description). With his description of the car and a partial license plate number, Phoenix police officers Carroll Cooley and Wilfred Young arrested Miranda, took him to the station house and placed him in a lineup.

After the lineup, when Miranda asked what he did, the police implied that he was positively identified. The police got a confession out of Miranda after two hours of interrogation, without informing him of his rights. After unburdening himself to the officers, Miranda was taken to meet the beating victim for positive voice identification. Asked by officers, in her presence, whether this was the victim, Miranda said, “That’s the girl.” The victim stated that the sound of Miranda’s voice matched that of the culprit.

Miranda then wrote his confessions down. At the top of each sheet was the printed certification that “…this statement has been made voluntarily and of my own free will, with no threats, coercion or promises of immunity and with full knowledge of my legal rights, understanding any statement I make can and will be used against me.” Despite the statement on top of the sheets that Miranda was confessing “with full knowledge of my legal rights,” he was not informed of his right to have an attorney present or of his right to remain silent. 73-year-old Alvin Moore was assigned to represent him at his trial. The trial took place in mid-June 1963 before Maricopa CountySuperior Court Judge Yale McFate.

Moore objected to entering the confession by Miranda as evidence during the trial but was overruled. Mostly because of the confession, Miranda was convicted of rape and kidnapping and sentenced to 20 to 30 years on both charges. Moore appealed to the Arizona Supreme Court but the charges were upheld.

Filing as a pauper, Miranda submitted his plea for a writ of certiorari, or request for review of his case to the U.S. Supreme Court in June 1965. After Alvin Moore was unable to take the case because of health reasons, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) attorney Robert J. Corcoran, asked John J. Flynn, a criminal defense attorney, to serve pro bono, along with his partner, John P. Frank, and associates Paul G. Ulrich and Robert A. Jensen  of the law firm Lewis & Roca in Phoenix to represent Miranda. They wrote a 2,500 word petition for certiorari that argued that Miranda’s Fifth Amendment rights had been violated and sent it to the United States Supreme Court.

Miranda v. Arizona

Main article: Miranda v. Arizona

In November 1965, the Supreme Court agreed to hear Miranda’s case, Miranda v. Arizona, along with three other similar cases to clear all misunderstandings created by the ruling of Escobedo v. Illinois. That previous case had ruled that,

Under the circumstances of this case, where a police investigation is no longer a general inquiry into an unsolved crime but has begun to focus on a particular suspect in police custody who has been refused an opportunity to consult with his counsel and who has not been warned of his constitutional right to keep silent, the accused has been denied the assistance of counsel in violation of the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments, and no statement extracted by the police during the interrogation may be used against him at a trial. Crooker v. California, 357 U.S. 433, and Cicenia v. Lagay, 357 U.S. 504, distinguished, and, to the extent that they may be inconsistent with the instant case, they are not controlling. Pp. 479–492.

In January 1966, Flynn and Frank submitted their argument stating that Miranda’s Sixth Amendment right to counsel had been violated by the Phoenix Police Department. Two weeks later the state of Arizona responded by stating that Miranda’s rights had not been violated. The first day of the case was on the last day of February 1966. Because of the three other cases and other information the case had a second day of oral arguments on March 1, 1966.

John Flynn and John Paul Frank for Miranda outlined the case and then stated that Miranda had not been advised of his right to remain silent when he had been arrested and questioned, adding the Fifth Amendment argument to his case. Flynn contended that an emotionally disturbed man like Miranda, who had a limited education, should not be expected to know his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself.

Gary Nelson spoke for the people of Arizona, arguing that this was not a Fifth Amendment issue but just an attempt to expand the Sixth Amendment Escobedo decision. He urged the justices to clarify their position, but not to push the limits of Escobedo too far. He then told the court that forcing police to advise suspects of their rights would seriously obstruct public safety.

The second day concerned arguments from related cases. Thurgood Marshall, the former NAACP attorney, was the last to argue. In his capacity as the Solicitor General, he presented the Johnson administration’s view of the case: that the government did not have the resources to appoint a lawyer for every indigent person who was accused of a crime.

Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote the opinion in Miranda v. Arizona. The decision was in favor of Miranda. It stated that:

The person in custody must, prior to interrogation, be clearly informed that he has the right to remain silent, and that anything he says will be used against him in court; he must be clearly informed that he has the right to consult with a lawyer and to have the lawyer with him during interrogation, and that, if he is indigent, a lawyer will be appointed to represent him.

The opinion was released on June 13, 1966. Because of the ruling, police departments around the country started to issue Miranda warning cards to their officers to recite. They read:

You have the right to remain silent. If you give up the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided to you at no cost. During any questioning, you may decide at any time to exercise these rights, not answer any questions or make any statements. Do you understand these rights as I have read them to you?

Life after Miranda v. Arizona

The Supreme Court set aside Miranda’s conviction, which was tainted by the use of the confession that had been obtained through improper interrogation. The state of Arizona retried him. At the second trial, his confession was not introduced into evidence, but he was convicted again on testimony given by his estranged de facto wife, but only after he sued for custody of their daughter. He was sentenced to 20 to 30 years in prison.

Miranda was paroled in 1972. After his release, he started selling autographed Miranda warning cards for $1.50. Over the next few years, Miranda was arrested numerous times for minor driving offenses and eventually lost the privilege to drive a car. He was arrested for the possession of a gun but the charges were dropped. However, because this violated his parole he was sent back to Arizona state prison for another year.

On January 31, 1976, after his release for violating his parole, a violent fight broke out in a bar in Phoenix, Arizona. Miranda received a lethal wound from a knife, and he was pronounced dead on arrival at Good Samaritan Hospital. Several Miranda cards were found on his person. The suspect, a Mexican national named Ezequiel Moreno, supposedly fled prosecution.

TUCSON, Ariz. — A man jailed since last year has been charged in the kidnapping and killing of two Arizona girls who went missing in 2012 and 2014, authorities announced Saturday.

Christopher Matthew Clements, 36, was indicted on Friday by a grand jury on 21 criminal counts, including murder and kidnapping charges in the deaths of 6-year-old Isabel Celis and 13-year-old Maribel Gonzalez, said Tucson Police Chief Chris Magnus.

This undated photo released by the Tucson Police Department on Saturday, Sept. 15, 2018 shows Christopher Matthew Clements.

Celis went missing from her Tucson home in April 2012 and her body was discovered in what was described as a rural area in March 2017.

Gonzalez’ body was discovered in June 2014 in the Avra Valley community near Tucson, not far from where Celis’ remains would be found three years later.

Magnus and other officials held a news conference to announce the indictment but declined to answer questions from reporters and did not disclose how the girls died or what prompted authorities to investigate Clements in the killings, except to say that the FBI in 2017 learned Clements might have information about the death of Celis.

He then provided information to authorities that led to the discovery of Celis’ remains, Magnus said. Investigators later discovered additional pieces of evidence, but did not describe Saturday what they had found.

Clements had already been in a Phoenix-area jail for more than a year facing other charges when the indictment was issued.

Pima County Attorney Barbara LaWall called the identification of Clements as the killer of the girls “long overdue.”

“The heart-wrenching tragedies of Maribel Gonzalez and Isabel Celis’ murders have been compounded by a very long, long wait for justice,” she said.

Celis’ father reported the girl missing on the morning of April 21, 2012, after he went to her bedroom and she was not there.

Police previously did not name suspects, but they said they found “suspicious circumstances around a possible entry point” into the home.

A medical examiner last year ruled Isabel Celis’ death as “homicide by unspecified means.” A heavily redacted autopsy report did not indicate how she died.

Gonzalez went missing on her way to a friend’s house and her body was found days later.

Clements made his first court appearance Saturday morning. He does not yet have an attorney but will be assigned one at a Sept. 24 arraignment.

Maricopa County Sheriff’s Sgt. Bryant Vanegas said Saturday that Clements was jailed in April 2017 on suspicion of burglary, theft and fraudulent schemes. Vanegas did not have information about when Clements might be transferred to southern Arizona to face charges in the case of the girl’s killings.

The indictment made public Saturday did not provide any details about how the girls were killed or what evidence linked Clements to the killings. It said he was also charged with burglary, theft and possession or distribution of child pornography in other cases dating from 2012 through 2016.
