We’ve all heard it on TV: “You have the right to remain silent…” But most people misunderstand entirely what Miranda rights actually mean. In this video, I break down the Top Miranda Rights Myths that could cost you in the real world.

🚨 Learn the truth about:

~Do police always have to read Miranda at arrest?
~Does your case get thrown out if they don’t?
~Can silence alone protect you?
~What happens if you talk before the warning?
~Do Miranda rights apply everywhere?

By the end, you’ll know what Miranda really protects — and what it doesn’t.

In this video, we break down the California Court of Appeal’s August 2025 decision in People v. Harlow, a case that redefines how courts handle mental health diversion under Penal Code § 1001.36.

🔎 What you’ll learn in this video:

~The story behind People v. Harlow and why the trial court denied diversion
~How the 2022 amendment to Penal Code 1001.36 changed the rules
~The difference between eligibility vs. suitability for diversion
~Why the Court of Appeal said a diagnosis made three years after the crime still counts

What this ruling means for defendants, lawyers, and the future of mental health in California criminal courts

⚖️ This case is a major win for those fighting for treatment over punishment. It shows how California law is shifting to prioritize rehabilitation instead of incarceration when mental illness plays a role in criminal behavior.

👉 Question for you: Do you think a late diagnosis should still qualify someone for diversion? Drop your thoughts in the comments!

The California Court of Appeal just delivered a major decision in Muñoz v. Regents (Aug. 5, 2025) — ruling that the University of California’s policy banning undocumented students without federal work permits from campus jobs violates California law.

In this video, I break down:

~What this case is about
~Why UC’s “risk management” defense failed
~How California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) protects workers based on immigration status
~The potential impact on universities and undocumented students statewide

Whether you’re a law student, an attorney, or just someone interested in immigration and employment rights, this case could set a powerful precedent for how institutions must treat undocumented students under California law.
