Which of the following is NOT part of the standard rule for a permissible second interrogation after invoking the right to remain silent?

• A. A significant passage of time.
• B. A fresh set of Miranda rights and a waiver.
• C. Scrupulously honor the suspect's rights to silence.
• D. Interrogation may occur immediately after the first without new rights in all cases.

Answer: (D)

When a person invokes the right to remain silent, questioning must pause and cannot resume unchecked. For a second interrogation to be permissible, there must usually be a significant break and a fresh set of Miranda warnings with a new waiver, or the suspect must initiate contact. This ensures the rights are clearly reestablished and voluntary. The statement that interrogation can occur immediately after the first without new rights in all cases contradicts this protection, which is why it’s not part of the standard rule. The other elements—a significant passage of time, a fresh Miranda warning with a waiver, and honoring the right to silence—align with the proper approach.
