1. “"The supreme court has clarified that Miranda warnings need to be given only when the person is in custody. Ramirez v. State, 739 So.2d 568 (Fla.1999), cert. denied, 528 U.S. 1131 [ 120 S.Ct. 970 , 145 L.Ed.2d 841 ] (2000). When determining if a defendant is in custody for purposes of Miranda, the test is whether `a reasonable person placed in the same position would believe that his or her freedom of action was curtailed to a degree associated with actual arrest.' Id. at 573. To determine whether a reasonable person in the suspect's position would consider himself in custody, the court should consider: (1) the manner in which police summon the suspect for questioning; (2) the purpose, place, and manner of the interrogation; (3) the extent to which the suspect is confronted with evidence of his or her guilt; (4) whether the suspect is informed that he or she is free to leave the place of questioning. Id. at 574 (emphasis supplied)."”
