But of course the miranda rights along with handcuffs is a great touch for your costume. LOL
I don't know if it's the same everywhere but "here" they read it from a card - don't take a chance at being accused of not stating it correctly or completely.
Apparently things get slow in a patrol car and I once dated an officer who could recite it from memory - backwards! Great bar bet.
