Juvenile Rights/Interrogation


The Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination applies to juveniles, and the law that governs custodial interrogation of juveniles encompasses the Fifth Amendment privilege as well as enhanced statutory protections contained in North Carolina's Juvenile Code.

In this session, Professor Greene discusses these protections and privileges in regards to juveniles' rights in custodial interrogation, what constitutes custodial interrogation of a juvenile, who "counts" as a guardian or custodian, and a juvenile's invocation or waiver of their rights under the Fifth Amendment and North Carolina law.
