Respondent interrupted the conversation, stating that the officers should turn the car around so he could show them where the gun was located. (b) Here, there was no express questioning of respondent; the conversation between the two officers was, at least in form, nothing more than a dialogue between them to which no response from respondent was invited.

As the Court points out, ante, at 299, the Court in Miranda was acutely aware of the fact that police interrogation techniques are not limited to direct questioning. . The issue, therefore, is whether the respondent was "interrogated" by the police officers in violation of the respondent's undisputed right under Miranda to remain silent until he had consulted with a lawyer.2 In resolving this issue, we first define the term "interrogation" under Miranda before turning to a consideration of the facts of this case. Under the accusatory system rationale, forced confessions (true or false) violate due process, while the free will rationale states that involuntary confessions are coerced if not given of a rational intellect and free will. Captain Leyden advised the respondent of his Miranda rights. That is to say, the term "interrogation" under Miranda refers not only to express questioning, but also to any words or actions on the part of the police (other than those normally attendant to arrest and custody) that the police should know are reasonably likely to elicit an incriminating response5 from the suspect.6 The latter portion of this definition focuses primarily upon the perceptions of the suspect, rather than the intent of the police. At this point, Patrolman McKenna radioed back to Captain Leyden that they were returning to the scene of the arrest and that the respondent would inform them of the location of the gun. By prohibiting only those relatively few statements or actions that a police officer should know are likely to elicit an incriminating response, the Court today accords a suspect considerably less protection. Any knowledge the police may have had concerning the unusual susceptibility of a defendant to a particular form of persuasion might be an important factor in determining whether the police should have known that their words or actions were reasonably likely to elicit an incriminating response from the suspect. In its Miranda opinion, the Court concluded that in the context of "custodial interrogation" certain procedural safeguards are necessary to protect a defendant's Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment privilege against compulsory self-incrimination. In fact, statements merely intended to be exculpatory by the defendant are often used to impeach his testimony at trial or to demonstrate untruths in the statement given under interrogation and thus to prove guilt by implication. Id., at 110, n. 2, 96 S.Ct., at 329, n. 2. See App. 1967). How does the accusatory system rationale compare with the free will rationale? interrogation refers not only to express questioning but also to any words or actions that the police should know are reasonably likely to elicit an incriminating response from the subject (rhode island v. innis) Sixth Amendment "Deliberately Eliciting a Response" Test Massiah v. U.S. at 6 (2009) (statement made to informant planted in defendants holding cell admissible for impeachment purposes because [t]he interests safeguarded by .
