Looking at the Miranda doctrine and juvenile court

The State Appellate Defender Office (SADO) isscheduled to present “Through the Eyes of a Child: Miranda and Statement Suppression in Juvenile Court” with Amanda Powell online today from 2 to 4 p.m. via Zoom.

The program will explore state and federal Constitutional, statutory, and rule-based interpretations of the Miranda doctrine and the impact of adolescent development on voluntariness of statements and capacity of children to knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waive Miranda rights.

Powell is an attorney, trainer, and juvenile defense consultant to the National Juvenile Defender Center.

After graduating from Capital University Law School in 2003, Powell was with the Office of the Ohio Public Defender until 2016. While there, she supervised attorneys in the juvenile appeals section and litigated more than 120 appeals, including eight cases argued in the Supreme Court of Ohio, for children with juvenile delinquency adjudications or those transferred to adult court.

As a consultant, Powell has assisted with litigation strategies for youth in more than a third of states across the country, including authoring NJDC’s amicus brief in the Supreme Court of Missouri.

Powell has been a Certified JTIP Trainer for NJDC’s Juvenile Training Immersion Program since 2014 and has trained thousands of juvenile defenders in more than 750 training sessions in 30 states and the District of Columbia.
