When Should You Talk to the Police?

quote [ I recently heard Professor James J. Duane talk about the perils of talking to the police. He was accompanied by a former police officer. This is some of what he had to say in my continuing education program. ]

This one made the rounds a few years ago, but there's a good chance many of you haven't seen it. This is for you. Hint, it's still brilliant :)

A prosecutor can portray your silence as a sign that your guilty, or that you're showing indifference to victims. Unless you specifically invoke the right, using specific legal magic words.
Invoking Your Right to Remain Silent


This also only applies IF they prosecute you. They can shoot you, then interrogate you in the ambulance as you bleed out, and that's fine, so long as they're not using your statements to prosecute you.
