| 0:00.0 | Life is a learning process. I am all of the time met with topics for which I feel wholly ignorant. |
| 0:09.7 | In other scenarios, I might know the basics of a topic, but definitely not enough to feel like my |
| 0:15.7 | opinion is thoroughly and sufficiently supported. And the origin of the Miranda warning, the case from which |
| 0:24.4 | that warning sprung, at least, was one for which I will admit I was completely ignorant, |
| 0:32.7 | until my research and discussions that I've conducted this past week. The warning itself is commonplace |
| 0:40.9 | enough. We hear it in nearly every police show and crime movie, especially for those of us |
| 0:47.7 | intrigued by the true crime world, we can probably even likely recite it by heart. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say |
| 0:57.4 | can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot |

| 1:50.5 | What I didn't know was what Ernesto Miranda's crimes actually were, and what had landed his case in the Supreme Court. |
| 2:02.0 | Tomorrow I'll be posting an interview with George Colbert, |
| 2:06.0 | writer and producer of the film Miranda's Victim that airs in select theaters |
| 2:11.6 | and on video on demand tomorrow, October 6th, 2023. |
| 2:17.1 | The lack of knowledge I had about the crime, well, I wasn't alone. |
| 2:23.4 | Colbert made this realization and knew that that was a story that needed to be told. And it is one |
| 2:31.0 | expertly presented in the film. |
| 2:35.1 | As a precursor to that interview and to hopefully your own viewing of this very important film, |
