For 35 years Judith Berliner has been running Full Circle Press in Grass Valley. In 1968, Judith’s father, Harold Berliner, along with Deputy State Attorney General Doris Maier, wrote the finalized text for the Miranda Warnings. Using his letterpress, Harold printed small, laminated cards, so every police officer in California would have a copy of the Miranda Warnings. Now, Judith has printed similar, small, laminated cards which outline individuals’ rights when approached by Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agents, known as ICE agents. Judith printed around 400 of these cards, which have been available at Grass Valley’s Nevada Union High School Library since the Spring.
