If you're just being arrested on a misdemeanor charge, as in this case, and not questioned, they don't have any reason or need to Mirandize you.

I'm going to move this thread to the Legal area.
Well 2 days ago 2 detectives came to my house to question me about a fight i was involved in. Me and some of my friends were chillin at the park when 4 cars of ppl came, we got jumped my friend got a like 9 inch wrench thrown at his head and almost died. Also someone on there side was stabbed and he almost died. The kid that was stabbed was blamming it on a close friend of mine even tho he didn't see him do it, no one else did and they don't have the knife. So a week after all this happened is when the detectives came to my house i'm 16 and in Ny where it is legal to interegate me without my mom present. But they never read me the Miranda rights does that matter at all?

Also when they came to my house me and my friend where in my basement we heard the knockin at my front door but i didn't feel like answering the door. We were down there just chillin scrapin a bunch of stems i had cause we had no weed. So then we heard knockin on my basement door, and window. I figured it was one of my friends and answered it. The asshole DT showed me his badge so i did just what i was told to do from the rights video. I walked out and closed the door behind me. The DT asked me if he could come in and i said no. Then he opened the fucking door and took like 2 steps in and just chilled there asking if my mom was home and shit.(let me mention that the stems are just chillin on the floor about 8 feet away from them, so i was nervous as fuck.) He asked me my name and for some ID. Then i said to them i know my rights you guys ain't got a warrant and i didn't say you could come in. They just said why you so nervous? Then they said they needed me to make a statement and asked if they could in there i said no so we went out to there car. So later on after 45minutes of questioning me they left and i went inside called my mom or w.e. Then she called the precient to talk to the DT she said they came in without my permission and the DT said that they never came in. Do you guys think i should try to take legal action about this? My friend is a witness to them walking in.
