DUNAWAY V. NEW YORK
442 U.S. 200 (1979)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a dispute over the probable cause to arrest.
FACTS: An owner of a pizza parlor was killed during an attempted robbery. An informant supplied a possible lead implicating Dunaway (D) in the crime. There was only enough evidence to create a suspicion but not enough for probable cause. Nonetheless, three detectives took D into custody. D was not told he was under arrest but he would have been physically restrained if he had attempted to leave. D was taken to police headquarters, placed in an interrogation room, and questioned after being read his Miranda rights. D eventually incriminated himself.
