The woman accused of helping dismember and hide the body of Fort Hood Army Specialist Vanessa Guillen has asked a federal judge to toss her confession, saying it was taken illegally.
According to federal court documents filed on Wednesday, officers did not read 22-year-old Cecily Aguilar her Miranda rights at the start of an interrogation that took place on June 30, 2020. The documents state Aguilar was being questioned about her boyfriend, 20-year-old Aaron Robinson, an Army Specialist who was later identified as the person of interest in Guillen's case.

unless she was actually under arrest when she was questioned, then Miranda rights do not apply. If she was simply brought in for questioning, then the confession will stick.

SSG Robert Perrotto - Willing or unwilling, going with them is still custody. Does not mean arrest by default. The article says she was interrogated versus simply questioned.

SSG Brian G. - I am not trying to insult you, so please do not take in that manner, but journalistic word choices are tools of public manipulation. Asking someone where they were and with who can be presented as an "interrogation". Case in point, undocumented immigrants and illegal aliens are the same thing, but each presents the issue in a different manner, and light, depending upon the intentions of the journalist.

"But when must an individual be read his or her Miranda rights? Miranda rights must be given only when a suspect is both, in custody and subject to interrogation."

SGM Erik Marquez unless of course you want to exercise authority to declare the meaning of things.... you do retain such agency to use force to dictate reality, non?
