There are times when an Officer might also say something on another interaction such as: "You are not under arrest. I am just detaining you until I have a better understanding of what exactly is going on. What is going on here tonight?" Just because an individual has not been read his miranda rights at this point, that doesn't mean what this individual says up until he/she is arrested can't be used against them in a court of law. However, a Judge has the final say on this if the issue comes up. Sometimes people are detained in cuffs too for the safety of the Officer(s). This doesn't necessarily mean the cuffed individual is going to be arrested.

40caljustice, I'm not a lawyer, let's get that out of the way early. I'm reaching back to an undergrad criminal law course from a couple decades ago, and various reading on the subject.
Look up "excited utterances." Note CaptCharlie's point about letting guys stew in the car; no questions have been asked; no questions are being asked. If the suspect chooses to blurt something out, his lawyer may have a lot of trouble getting any such statement thrown out. Those are just two examples where Miranda may not be determined to apply. I'm sure there are others, but again, I am not an attorney. |

For those interested in the Facebook postings by the accomplice who didn't get shot, here is a blog page that has all the screen shots: http://gunguynextdoor.blogspot.com/2...stings-of.html
Edit by staff: Please note that the blog postings in the link contain strong language. Thanks for the edit, I meant to do it, but just completely slipped my mind!

Ok so I don't have to say anything whatsoever to a police officer? I know it's better to cooperate and I will given the circumstances but this is a handy little bit of info. And anything I say before and after arrest can be used. Heck, that means if I'm in a tight spot I'm not saying anything before or after arrest. Give them the basics then it's "I don't know". Don't get me wrong. I've never been in any trouble to amount to anything but if something happens I'm just gonna keep quiet and lawyer up. U never know what can happen. Thanks fellas. Ill look into it some more. Might ask some LEO family and friends.

40cal
You can also say, "I would like to exercise my right to remain silent at least until I speak with my lawyer."
I am not even getting into whether this is best option. I am just saying if this is done much of what you say will be reversed. Interrogations at police stations stop when people 'lawyer up' BUT you would be amazed how many cops keep asking questions after a suspect exercises his rights to remain silent and to legally access a lawyer. Officers can sometimes get upset as well and a little aggressive(an example is the recent open carry activist in Philly who recorded his altercation with a uniformed officer in Philly while he was legally open carrying - this thread was on the firing line but I can't remember which one). Don't get me wrong, it is understandable for a LEO to get upset with some of the crimes they deal with on a day to day and week to week basis. You seem to be interested in this stuff even though its prevebntative and you oprobably won't need it. That is a good thing and at least half the battle all the best

What a low life. I hope that both of them get what they deserve.

Interesting case in why we need CCW permits, and why we need to have the weapon on us and ready at all times.
I will show this all to my wife. While my wife supports me carrying, there's a part of her that does not truly believe it is necessary. |

If you've ever thought of using a gun to defend yourself (and we all have on this forum), you need to think how you are going to handle it afterward. For me, I'm going to tell the officer responding to the scene the basics of what happened. I will tell an investigating detective one time what happened. I will then assert my Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. By this point, I figure they are looking for inconsistencies and it's quite possible for a truthful person to relate inconsistent details under stress. Everybody has to decide for themselves the course to take.

The case to know inside and out on how to respond after a CCW incident is Harold Fish of New Mexico as mentioned earlier. The bottom line is that you need to talk to an experienced self defense lawyer first before you make any formal statements to an LEO. Even experienced lawyers involved in these incidents need to get their own lawyer otherwise they have a fool for a client. No matter what you state on your own, it can be construed in manners in which you can't foresee at the time of the statement.
This case is what not to do after a CCW incident by sounding off on an online blog. These are all public forums subject to legal discovery and can and have been used against people. If you need to vent, do it to your lawyer and him alone. |

UPDATE: Billy Blackburn Jr., one of the alleged strongarm robbers in the video that started this post, ended up robbed and shot in the neck and leg himself while attempting to buy drugs. Suprisingly, it also happened at a gas station and was once again captured on video.
http://www.whiotv.com/news/news/loca...hooting/nLdzq/ I thought it was an interesting update to the original story and goes to highlight how video plays an increasing omnipresent role in our society. You can't count on being fortunate enough to have your fight captured on video; but you should never assume it wasn't. |

What is really troubling about this whole thing is the attitude of the perps and their friends.
They seem to be offended that someone would resist and are enraged when they do. We really do live in a parallel universe. Geetarman |

You are not up on what is hot on the streets.
Does anyone else notice that Billy Bob says something derogatory on his FB page and the victim isn't even black? Shows how absolutely ignorant he is.
It is not about black or white, it is just a way of life. If you live a certain life then that is what you call your self and all your associates. |

My favorite part of this story has always been his facebook comments about how some people just can't fight (I believe his term was "buck up"). He didn't seem to highlight the part that he wasn't winning the original fight until his PARTNER came to help out. I guess some people just aren't tough enough to take on two people without resorting to shooting one... (original incident in case that seems confusing). |

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...412824756.html ACLU is not happy about it: http://il.aclu.org/site/DocServer/Su...pdf?docID=3261 Odds are increasing that a fight will be captured on video and I have to believe that in the heat of the moment most people will totally forget about it. Jerome Ersland was tripped up by the video in his own store. Maybe Ersland is not a good example, but you would think that someone that security concious would at least be cognizant of the video monitors in the store where he works every day. |

I do carry, and I keep one in the chamber for instances just like this, but I'm not going to live my life in fear just because something might happen. That being said, I probably would have handled a drunk/crackhead leaning on my car a bit more aggressively. I'm glad everything worked out for the would be victim. |

Oh the irony. So much for all that trash talk. It seems the golden rule rings true in this case. This man had done unto him what he had done to others.

So I know bumping an old post is frowned upon but I hope this contains significant content.
Anyways, I'm new to this party (I read through old pages of T+T whenever I get the chance). The link to the video is dead so I am unfortunately unable to view it. I have gone to the OFCC website. That thread has gone from 18 pages to 51 The other thing that concerns me is that, if you follow the guy's Facebook (now under a different name), he is still there interacting with other people as recently as March. I am more than a little curious how this is possible. He was facing multiple charges last I read. Perhaps the OFCC thread will shed some light |

Also found this on that website: http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/...tandoff/nMybm/
That person, involved in the shootout, is our victim from the original story. Also found that the friend of the one who was shot was later hospitalized during a drug deal gone wrong at a gas station. Story just gets better and better |
