Coös County Police were too slow to read his Miranda Rights?

The defense found a weak link among the bikers, and played it to the hilt.
Among my library of books--mostly about Nature--I have a volume autographed to me by the author titled, "The Defense Never Rests".
Personally, I'd like very much to analyze an enlarged
aerial photograph of the [cleared] roadway scene with the sun directly overhead.
