I have always been a back the blue, police are here to help kinda guy. UNTIL my son Overdosed and was in the hospital... his friend drove him to the hospital and he was in ICU... his friend was more savvy then we were and he gave us his phone and told us, whatever you do, do not give this to the police... Soon there were 7 police all surrounding us, and questioning us. They were telling us all kinds of stuff, like our son had died multiple times, and they had to use the paddles to bring him back, they needed his phone, to search his car and our house so they could find out who sold him the drugs... they said he had been in a car wreck as well... for some reason it all set off alarms.... and we backed up, refused to let them have the phone or search anything, when we talked to the doctor he said, your son is fine, just very sedated, he never died, he was not it a car wreck... all of a sudden we realized the police were lying to us, trying to set up our son... we called a lawyer and they backed off super fast... I no longer trust police

a conversation with police is literally them trying to find reasons to arrest you.

Isn't is pathetic that an innocent civilian need a "strategy" to avoid being caged and ruined by the actions of those hired to protect them?!

Best phrase ever spoken, " I don't answer questions. "

It's my personal observation; Most police officers are hoping you don't know your Constitutional Rights !

Never, never, never talk to the police. Never open your door. If they had a warrant they would kick the door open.

At 2:17 . This very same thing happened to me. I had two cops ask me the very same thing 8 or 9 times and since I was not lying I had nothing to tell him but what i'd already said. I repeated the same statement over and over as he accused me of breaking every law he could think of and saying that thing were illegal when they were not. Finally he said " Well, the Judge make the law in this county and he says it's illegal". So I replied "Great! Let's go see the judge, I want to go see the judge. Let's go see the judge right now!" From this point on things changed. The cop started being real nice and said " No No No We don't want to bother the judge. Apparently the judge was not as crooked as the this little county cop.

Remember, ignorance of the law is no excuse. Unless it's police, judges, alphabet agencies, or anyone collecting a paycheck from the government. In those cases its normal and they can't be expected to know all of the laws.

The 5th Ammendment and your Miranda Rights apply to you 24/7/365, NOT just when the cops allow it. USE THEM.

I disagree with the SCOTUS on remaining silent without invoking the fifth. Do I have to invoke the first to speak, or publish a newspaper or go to church? The right exists whether invoked or not.

I lost the case I carried my CCW permit in some years ago. As required by law, I went to my local police department and filed a report. After filing the report, another officer came in and started making friendly small talk. After a short while, he asked me if I had carried a weapon after I had lost the permit in a roundabout way. Since he asked the question in a roundabout way, curiosity got the best of me, so I answered no in a roundabout way. The officer then changed the subject for a minute or two and then returned to the same question in a roundabout way. I was then sure he was looking for a reason to arrest me for doing the right thing. I told him, "Look, I have to go." I didn't wait for a response. I just left the building, got in my car, and left. I already knew they had no cause to detain me, much less arrest me. No attempt was made to stop me from leaving the station. The case was recovered thirty miles from where I lost it at a McDonald's parking lot. The CCW, debit card, and military ID were missing. For some strange reason, the Driver's License was left in the case.

Yup. The best thing to do if you are a suspect is say and do nothing.

Many years ago, I was questioned about an assault on my ex-girlfriend (I had a rock solid alibi; it happened in Christchurch and was in Australia at the time).

The Police came to my work place and wanted me to accompany them to the Police station. They didn't tell me why, and I know my rights so I said no. One of the two cops said something like _"being uncooperative won't help you"_ - I said, something like _"I know my rights. If you want me to come with you, you will have to arrest me. Are you arresting me?"_ . They didn't answer immediately, but then the other cop said something like _"Why not? If you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear"_ and I remember exactly what I said next. I laughed and said _"I have three words for you... Arthur, Allan, Thomas"_ * . I could see the pair of them were not happy with that response, so I quickly said words to the effect that _"If you want to interview me, I am happy for you to do so at my home, with my solicitor present and recording everything"_ . With that, they left and and my solicitor arranged the interview. Once they realized that my alibi was sound they lost interest in me.

My advice to anyone who gets involved as a suspect or a person of interest with the Police is that
1. You do *not* have to answer *any* of their questions
2. You do *not* have to go with them unless they arrest you

*NOTE: The _Arthur Allan Thomas_ reference above is to a famous NZ case of wrongful conviction when NZ Police concealed exculpatory evidence and eye-witness reports, and planted damning evidence (namely a .22 cartridge case) in order to frame the suspect.

I don't understand why cops can lie to you but you cannot seem to lie to them...

I love videos like this....police across the country rely HEAVILY on the fact so many people don't know their rights....going as far as getting aggravated at those of us that do.

Handling cops is easy, really easy. Cop: We just want to talk.
Me: Name and badge number.
Cop: I'm Officer Davis, badge number 123.
Me: Outstanding. Officer Davis badge number 123, what crime do you suspect me of commiting, am I being detained?
Cop: You are being detained, I need your ID.
ME: If I'm being detained, what's the crime, again?
Cop: You match the description of so n so..
Me: Where's the affidavit or incident report articulating your reasonable articulable probable cause?
Cop: ID now, or else.
Me: I don't answer questions, and I envoke all of my unalienable rights henceforth. I do not consent to searches or seizures of myself, and my property.
End of story. Shut your mouth when dealing with police, you have the unalienable right to shut up, and not provide evidence against yourself to aid them in their investigation.
Cops are extortionists for the state, they're not there to protect or serve you.
Ever looked at a squad car, and noticed that "to protect and serve" is quotation marks?! As of it were a joke or a suggestion...

Problem is cops think they can detain you for any reason at any time. All they gotta do is say suspicious activity and they will say your detained:

I have interviewed several police officers. I was shocked at how little they actually understood about constitutional rights. It appears many police officers are improperly trained or do not care.

Yup. I had a detective try to get me to admit to sending some pretty sick, illegal shit over facebook. He got into my facebook account, called my ex, tried to get her to tell him I did it, even had her call me while he listened and see if she could trip me up (She couldn't/wouldn't. I knew her well enough to know what was going on when she called just by the tone of her voice, so we ran him around in circles and even started having phone sex before he gave up on that call.) He sent letters begging me to come in to talk, called and left voicemails saying it could be cleared up if I let them inspect my phone and computers. But bottom line: He wasn't gonna arrest me without evidence that didn't exist unless he could trick me into admitting to something I didn't do. Long story short: My ex's ex was trying to frame me to get me away from her. He also tried it with a couple of her friends.

NEVER FORGET. the friendly police officer at the scene or on the phone are part of the prosecutorial team that makes political points on convictions at election time.

There are ONLY two times you do not have to answer a police officers questions.

1 when you are detained or under arrest

2 when you are neither detained nor under arrest
