According to Florida State Law, fleeing and eluding occurs when an officer of the law requests an individual to pull over their vehicle and that individual refuses or fails to stop. This crime can also occur when an individual stops their vehicle and then runs on foot in order to evade a police officer. Learn what these charges mean and how you can defend against them.
The right to remain silent protects you when and if you undergo police questioning or trial. If you've been charged with a crime and spoken to the police, make sure you contact the criminal defense team at Attorney William B. Bennett P.A. as soon as possible to lessen any consequences.
The right against self-incrimination basically states that you don't have to talk about your case or testify on your behalf. When one "pleads the 5th", the burden is then put on the state to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. Your miranda rights are built on the 5th Amendment as a method to help protect those rights.
