A. miranda rights everyone knows that the miranda rights starts with "you have the right to remain silent"

Answer 2

The correct answer is A) "Miranda rights".

Step-by-step explanation:

Miranda Rights refer to the right of the accused to "remain silent". This entitlement exists to give further protection of Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights, which gives citizens the right to counsel during interrogation and criminal prosecution, respectively.

Miranda Rights came to appear after a man arrested for robbery was also convicted for kidnapping and sexual assault when he confessed his crimes to the police because he didn't know he had the right to remain silent and be assisted by a lawyer.

The standard Miranda warning recited by the police to any suspect goes like this: "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense."
