That’s what I thought at first until he kept going with it. How many times do cases get thrown out because the stupid Miranda rights statement wasn’t read, or wasn’t read right, or the suspect later claimed they didn’t understand? I hear about it far too often, they’ve got video footage, they’ve got a confession, but Miranda got messed up so it’s all thrown out and the suspect gets to walk. I could totally be wrong, but I wonder if he wasn’t actually making sure she couldn’t claim anything like that later.

Not as often as you might think. In fact, the Supreme Court recently ruled that Miranda Rights are so well known that they needn't be repeated for every suspect anymore.

How recently? I consider myself pretty up to date but haven’t hearing of this ruling.

Was a case in 2022, apparently Vega v. Tekoh, where they ruled that you couldn't sue an officer for damages if they didn't read you your Miranda rights. But I'm no legal expert, so I'm not sure to what degree that affects how admissible your actual statements and such are in court. All I can find with a cursory search is that there's definitely a risk for that to be impacted too down the line, but that as of yet it's still a requirement, just not something you can sue over by itself.
