Hello Professor and Classmates. After reading the article, the three major issues I got out of eyewitness identification in lineups and other means are, a persons memory could be jarred by things that did not happen, based on some events that may have been too hard for them to see, like maybe a car accident, shooting, etc. Then, a persons memory could be falsely interrupted by what others may have said or during questioning by investigators, based on their questions. And then in lineups a person could mistake a person who did not commit a crime with the person who actually did, based on certain features that they may have in common. The Miranda warning does not apply to me in situations where a suspect is caught for shoplifting, and they are detained by security, it does not apply because they security officers are not the police. And if a cop stops a person and questions them, before they are arrested, then Miranda does not apply because they are not under arrest and no handcuffs were put on them. And Lastly, if the questions are only asking a persons name, their address, or date of birth, then Miranda warning does not apply, because these questions are not in a manner that would be considered an interrogation. In other words, in order for Miranda to apply, the questions must be in a manner that the answers they give may incriminate them in one way or another.
