1968It is with pardonable pride that we note that for over one hundred forty years the rule enunciated in State v.

Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 , is not new with us, but the broad and far-reaching language, which we must acknowledge as binding on us, has had such a massive impact upon criminal jurisprudence and law enforcement that we must construe and apply its language to the facts of the instant case.

1968The case of Miranda v. Arizona, supra, erects certain safeguards as to the question of “in-custody” suspects which require, in effect, that the suspect be warned: (1) that he has the right to remain silent, (2) that any statement he does make may be used as evidence against him in court, (3) that he has the right to counsel, either appointed or retained, prior to and during the interrogation, and (4) that if he is indigent, counsel will be appointed for him prior to any questioning, if he so desires.
