Ah – he’s gotten the Miranda talk. I hide my smile. Anyone know what this is? Edit: Thanks, live in Australia so don't get all the lingo.

  The miranda talk is the formal speech an officer makes before they move on you so that you know your rights.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miranda_warning http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miranda_warning When any law enforcement officer in the USA starts asking you questions, become EXTREMELY cautious and serious (even if they do not explicitly state the warning, which they might just say afterwards to cover themselves). People often think they can "talk themselves out of it", and almost always discover that is not the case.

  Well, Miranda refers to Miranda Rights, or the Miranda Warning: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miranda_warning http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miranda_warning However, Miranda rights are mostly about the right to avoid self-incrimination. In the article he seems to suggest that the officer must present identification or credentials as part of Miranda, which is not something I'm familiar with.
