September 9, 2024

In this case, the Supreme Court addressed whether Eugene’s statements, which he gave without being informed of his rights under Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 478–79 (1966), were the product of an unconstitutional custodial interrogation. The Court concluded that Eugene was not in custody for Miranda purposes. Accordingly, the Court reversed the court of appeals’ judgment.
