Waiver Capacity
Forensic Mental Health Assessment
01 Jul 2014
Abstract
Chapter 2 discusses the capacity of adult defendants to waive their Miranda rights. The principle to be applied to the first case concerns the value of nomothetic data, derived from groups and applied through general laws, to forensic assessment. The second case addresses how the forensic assessment process can also be improved through the use of information that is specific to the case at hand.
