When the police ask you any questions and you are the focus of their investigation, the first words out of your mouth should be: "I WON'T ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY CRIMINAL LAWYER." You should never talk to the police unless you have a criminal lawyer with you who specializes in criminal defense. In all criminal matters it is really that simple. The police will try to trick you into talking without a criminal lawyer by saying things like: "If you didn't do it, you don't need a lawyer," "You are not a suspect," or "Only guilty people ask for a lawyer." They are trained to get incriminating information out of people. They have been taught to say these things or even: "This is your only chance to tell your side of the story," and the best of all "Since you haven't done anything wrong you'll let me search."
These are lies the police frequently, and legally, tell in the hopes of getting you to give up your ABSOLUTE RIGHT to remain silent or to consult a criminal lawyer and have a lawyer who specializes in criminal law present during questioning. By law the police are allowed, and are trained, to lie to gain a confession from a suspect. They will often promise to work with the Criminal District Attorney on your behalf. The only one concerned for your rights is your criminal lawyer. If they can trick you into talking without a lawyer that specializes in criminal defense, they wil take advantage of your limited understanding of the law. You have the right to remain silent and to have a lawyer present during any questioning. Many people sitting in prison today would be free if they had exercised their rights and spoken with a criminal lawyer first! Never talk to the police without a criminal lawyer.
