Miranda rights: under Miranda,
any suspect subject to custodial interrogation must be advised of his right to
have a lawyer present. 384 U. S., at 474. Under Edwards,
once such a defendant “has invoked his Miranda right,” interrogation
must stop. 451 U. S., at 484. And under Minnick v. Mississippi,
498 U. S. 146, no subsequent interrogation may take place until counsel is
present. Id., at 153. These three layers of prophylaxis are sufficient; (…)
Michigan v. Jackson, 475 U. S. 625 (1986), forbidding police to
initiate interrogation of a criminal defendant once he has requested counsel at
an arraignment or similar proceeding. Michigan v. Jackson should
be and now is overruled (U.S.S.Ct., 26.05.09, Montejo v. Louisiana, J. Scalia).
