Cupp in which according to Police Link, “ The case involved the interrogation of a homicide suspect who was falsely told that an accomplice had already implicated the suspect in the killing.” In the case of Frazier v. Cupp kept on getting integrated even after he asked to speak to a lawyer so as a result he ended up doing a written confession where he confessed about being part of the murder that was later used as evidence against him.

    In Gagnon v. Scarpelli (1973) probationers were afforded the right to a preliminary hearing at the time of their arrest to determine if there is probable cause to believe they have committed a parole violation and a final hearing that is a more comprehensive hearing to determine the making of a final revocation decision (Gagnon v. Scarpelli, 1973). The Court’s rulings in Morrissey v. Brewer (1972) and Gagnon v. Scarpelli (1973) resulted in neither probation nor parole can be revoked without a formal due process hearing that requires notice, disclosure of evidence, an opportunity to be heard, a neutral hearing body, and written statements of the fact-finders (Zalman, 2011, p. 308).The Court stated in Gagnon v.
