MAY 12, 2000 The 4th District Court of Appeals in Madison, Wisconsin upheld the Miranda Rights of a deaf Native man accused of murdering his son. George Hindsley had been questioned by police through an interpreter after an officer read his Miranda Rights aloud. Hindsley later challenged comments he made during a more than two hour interview on the basis that he did not understand that he was waiving his rights. The case is State of Wisconsin v. George W. Hindsley, No. 99-1374-CR. Get the Story:
