This case established the absolute right to remain silent. This came to be as Escobedo was refused consultation with his lawyer and was eventually made to confess to murder. Basically he was forced to incriminate himself and as a result had his rights violated. This was made using the sixth amendment, but in modern times the fifth is used for similar cases.
