We have learned that the some of the rights in the Bill of Rights are for people that are suspected of being involved in criminal activity.
The rights contained in the Bill Rights are part of what makes the United States unique. Now that you know the importance of the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th. Consider this case:
You are a homicide detective and are investigating the abduction of a 7 year old girl. It's Saturday night, 11PM. Police officers have brought in a sexual registrant to the station. He is is on parole for a sexual assault of a child and was recently released from prison. He matches the description of a person who was seen riding a bike near the girl's home and he lives two blocks away from the missing girl.
Although not under arrest he is technically in custody and you read him his Miranda Rights. He waives his rights and after a lenghty interrogation, he tells you that he raped the girl and has left her tied up in a vacant building without food or water and hopes she dies.
He refuses to answer any other questions when you ask him about the details and location of the girl. He states that will not answer anymore questions. He wishes to invoke his right to remain silent and wants a lawyer.
What will you do? You truly believe that he raped her, he has told you that he raped her, and you believe him when he tells that she is still alive.
REMEMBER, he has asked for a lawyer. It's Saturday night and doesn't want to talk anymore. If you arrest and book him, you have present this case on Tueday and hope that the DA files charges. However, you don't haven't located the vicitm.
Will you continue to interrogate him after invoking his right to remain silent and what is your plan to find the girl?
Here is where you use RS, PC, warrants, and your knowledge on interrogations, Miranda Rights, parole restrictions, and many other resources that you can use as an investigator.
Ok Detective what will you do?! Her life is in your hands. Solve this one before she dies!!
