Quizplus · Accepted Answer

New York v. Quarles is the case that highlighted the issue of the public safety exception to the Miranda warning requirement. In this case, a suspect was arrested and questioned without being read his Miranda rights first because the police believed there was an imminent danger to the public. The Supreme Court later ruled that the public safety exception can be used in certain situations to protect the public, even if it means questioning a suspect before advising them of their rights.
