Answer to Question 1

The Sixth Amendment right to counsel applies once formal criminal proceedings have begun from preliminary hearing to a trial.

Answer to Question 2

The Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments still apply to interrogations and confessions in certain situations. For example, if the police conduct in question is not a custodial interrogation (as in Miranda) but formal charges have been filed, the Sixth Amendment will apply. Similarly, if custody and interrogation do not take place and formal charges are not filed, the due process voluntariness test can still be relevant for the purpose of determining the constitutionality of a confession or admission.
