Edwards prevents police from questioning a suspect who does “not wish to have a lawyer present” during questioning. Davis v. United States, 512 U.S. 452, 460, 114 S.Ct. 2350, 2356, 129 L.Ed.2d 362 (1994) (emphasis added). It is not always clear, however, whether a suspect has invoked his right to have counsel present during custodial interrogation, and thus has asked for “the particular sort of lawyerly assistance that is the subject of Miranda,” McNeil, 501 U.S. at 178, 111 S.Ct. at 2209, or whether he has asked for counsel for some other purpose.
