recently had a run in with the law where i was in a car with a bunch of weed and was booked for possession with intent, i didnt say anything to the cop even though i was actually innocent of the crime. it was probably the best move i could have made because in the end without a lawyer or anything the charges were just dropped, they just had nothing to go on and i might have said something that they decided they wanted to look into and went ahead with it if i would have talked.
the point is, if youre at the station and youre being asked to give a statement, look the cop in the eye, tell him/her that you want them to write down everything they have on you, any witness statements and transcripts of what other people that were arrested said put it all in a nice bundle for you to look through it, you want the copp to take it to a prosecutor and tell them that it is the only evidence that can be used against you and only then after youve had the chance to look through it all would you answer his questions
the cop will look at you furious because whether he/she likes it or not, thats exactly what they would have to do
