Talk to the police? Try this on for size.

Saw that a few years ago, excellent video.

Does that mean we will no longer talk to any cops anymore? Any cops here on the board?

Can any PO confirm this?

Although this is a repost, I'll again make a few counter points.

Say he is involved in a traffic accident, does that mean he won't give the police any information (talk to the police)?

What if someone breaks into his house, binds him up and rapes his wife, will he not talk to the police?


There is a myriad of cases that are self defense that have been dropped because the accused has a reason for his action(s).

If the accused would have not talked to the police, then only one side of the story would have been presented to the DA and there would have been no choice but to pursue charges.

To anyone, keeping quiet and hiding behind an attorney implies guilt.


Keep in mind most of what this guy is talking about pertains to Federal Law.

What's in the video is true. But also what Matt said is true.

Guilty until proven innocent is the way the system works anyhow. I particularly love how an officer can continually change his story, and unless the judge considers it a big change, no questions are asked.

What the fuck? Are you guys even aware of the fact there is a US Constitution?

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Video explains exactly why it is important to be represented if questioned by the po-lice. Of course you are going to say that. Go practice law and you'll state the opposite.

Especially since Miranda is pretty clear about "anything you say can and WILL be used against you". Innocent until proven (not assumed) guilty. And guilty or innocent, I'd be shutting the fuck up and doing exactlty as my counsel said.

It was a baited statement, but one that is painfully true. Just pool a jury after a trial and see if it doesn't have an impact. To the common person that sits on any jury, the reluctance for the defendant to make any effort to defend himself speaks volumes.

Go do some research before burning me at the cross of the 5th.
