Identify the three provisions in the U.S. Constitution that govern police interrogations and confessions

What will be an ideal response?


The three provisions in the U.S. Constitution that govern police interrogations and
confessions are the Due Process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Sixth
Amendment Right to Counsel clause, and the Fifth Amendment Self-Incrimination
clause. (Authors Note: Since the Fifth Amendment also contains a Due Process
clause identical to the Fourteenth Amendment, there are arguably four provisions in
the Constitution that govern police interrogations and confessions. The Fifth
Amendment Due Process clause would only govern in federal cases while the
Fourteenth Amendment Due Process clause would only govern state cases.)
