## Opinion text

Dissenting Opinion by
Price, J.:
I agree with the majority opinion in all but its conclusion that this investigation is a part of a criminal investigation. Since I would conclude the investigation here discussed to be non-criminal in its scope and purpose, I would not require the Miranda warnings.
Accordingly, I would reverse the order of the lower court.
