That may be, but that is far and away not similar to what we are talking about here
which is being in an interrogation room with a police officer
I did not catch that context. You just said: "Rule #1: Do not talk to the police
EVER"
are you changing the scene?
Even then, how does that help you?
The police would have to build a case against you
It helps you because if you point out the blue over black, and the LEO walks over and aquires the firearm that was just in the possession of the man you shot, it can change the case somewhat.
If you do not, it looks like you just shot an unarmed man.
doesn't matter what you know. it matters what you can prove
how does the LEO know that the guy's firearm in his buddy's pocket is the guy's firearm anyway?
i just don't see that helping you
ok
MAYBE it can
but...
well, I tried.
either way, the likelihood that speaking to a police officer about your guilt/innocence in a manner that will actually help you is astronomically low compared to the likelihood that it will help them build a case agaisnt you
long story short: i'd rather get arrested and give them nothing than probably still get arrested anyway and potentially give them something with which to convict me
I think you guys as are talking past eachother
When he says "never talk to the police" it isn't literal
B. Of course you call the police if you killed someone in self defense
Then you need to talk to the police.
C. Of course you point out evidence on the ground or wherever if the police miss it
then you would need to acquire the cooperation of the police.
that takes communication.
So now the "dont talk to the police -EVER" rule seems to be less of a rule, right?
Yes if you are amelia bedilia
It is a short rule that has exceptions you are supposed to educate yourself on
I know a better rule: "If you act as your own defense, your client is an idiot."
You are now being intentionally obtuse. I never meant "don't say hi to police"
the context is
the police suspect you or want to question you
you do not answer questions without counsel present
point blank period
If you don't educate yourself on the exceptions, then it is a great rule because you will destroy yourself worse than shutting up if you aren't educated
so not EVER, just not when questioned
oh ffs
yea you can walk down the street and say "good afternoon, officer"
therefore you can say that my point is mute saying "don't ever talk to the police"
moot*
