Beautiful twisting

Twisting comes from both sides of the media. Mama was reading stories today about whether or not Mirandizing suspected terrorists was good or bad. Mama heard on the radio that the current administration was going to have all military members Mirandize any person they capture during war. Mama re-read a story and wanted to point something out. It wasn't the military that was Mirandizing suspected terrorists on American bases overseas. It was the FBI doing it.

The FBI is not the military; they are a law enforcement organization (please keep your conspiracy theories to yourself...). As a law enforcement organization they need to do things to preserve evidence they may get as a result of interrogation. If a person is not properly Mirandized when law enforcement is involved confessions and other evidence can be (and usually is) thrown out at trial or even before trial.

The military is not law enforcement (aside from on a military base).

Mama just loves sensational news stories, don't you?

Moral of the story: read several articles and read them carefully.
