Define and describe the concept of interrogation

What will be an ideal response?


Miranda defined interrogation as questioning initiated by law enforcement officers. The Court determined that interrogation must reflect a measure of compulsion above and beyond that inherent in custody itself. Thus, any questions that tend to incriminate, such as those that are directed toward an individual about his or her suspected involvement in a crime, are considered interrogation.
