Nаcоgdоches pоlice respond to а report of threаtening graffiti (“You’ll regret this”) behind a strip mall. A witness saw “a teenager with a backpack” run toward a drainage ditch. Officers find 16-year-old Tyler Ransom near the ditch with a backpack next to him. Tyler immediately says, “I didn’t do anything—please don’t call my dad.” An officer briefly looks into the unzipped backpack and sees two cans of spray paint and a folding knife. The knife is removed, Tyler is handcuffed, and Officer Hernandez asks, “Is there anything else in this bag that could hurt anyone?” Tyler answers, “No, just the paint and my knife.” Tyler is transported to the station, placed in a small interview room with the door closed, and no parent or guardian is contacted. Detective Marsh gives Miranda warnings from memory: “Before we ask any questions, you need to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court. You have the right to talk with a lawyer before we question you and to have one with you during questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you before any questioning if you wish.” Marsh then adds, “It’s up to you whether you choose to talk, and you can stop at any time.” Tyler nods and says, “Okay, I think I get it,” and, when asked if he wants to talk, replies, “I guess so.” About ten minutes into questioning, after being asked several times about the graffiti, Tyler says, “Can I talk to my youth mentor? He helps me when I’m in trouble.” Marsh replies, “We can’t call him right now, but you can still decide whether to talk to us.” Tyler becomes quieter and says, “I don’t think I should be saying stuff.” When Marsh asks if he wants to stop the interview, Tyler shrugs and says, “I don’t know… maybe.” The detectives continue questioning and eventually obtain incriminating statements. Tyler moves to suppress all statements, arguing that: He was in custody both at the ditch and at the station. The questioning at the ditch required Miranda warnings. His youth prevented him from understanding or waiving his rights. He invoked his rights by asking for his mentor and by saying he shouldn’t be talking. Prompt: You are the prosecutor. Respond to each of Tyler’s arguments for suppression and explain why the statements should be admitted.
