Miranda rights are ONLY necessary if you intend to use the guy's statements against them in court. If you don't give them, the guy doesn't automatically go free or anything. It ONLY means that whatever he says can't be introduced into evidence against him at trial.
If you have, SAY, videotape of the guy dropping off a bag that later explodes AND evidence at where he lived that he had bomb making devices AND evidence on his computer about bombs and planning this AND a carjacking AND a shoout with the police AND a murder of an MIT police officer (that you feel confident can be tied back to him), then you really don't need a freaking confession do you?

Dude's right. Also, they can Mirandize the suspect at any time so they might do it at the hospital or in the amberlamps or wherever.
