Busted! How to Handle the Police Until You Get a Lawyer - by Mary Griego 

Not only will it not be used to help you, it _can't_, by law, be used to help you

its not about will, it cant

BS

@Aaron Ledford Of course you can be cooperative and respectful and that might help your case. However, you can conduct yourself this way in a manner that maintains your rights not to say anything that is not legally required.

@@waltlutz9897 Why?

Eric S YES YES! I agree. Please don’t be rude or have an attitude. Because they WILL cuff you!!!

No, just say, "I wish to speak with my attourney, and stfu

Wrong, don't say anytujnv at all. Because anything you say will be used against you in an aggressive way, no matter what u say

What happens if you are rude and say all those things you just mentioned. What can they do? Torture you to talk?

Obtaining a lawyer is saying your an idiot and are incapable of standing on your own two feet.

+Spiritual Anarchist The police are not out to get everybody. The reason people will not give witness statements in certain areas is because their life would be in danger.

I do not claim 'they are out to get you' , Every country has different laws. However their seem to be many video's around like these that keep saying the same thing. Do NOT talk to U.S law enforcement without a lawyer. It's also no secret that the U.S has largest percentage of it's population in jail in the Western word. Thus i think it is fair to conclude people will think twice before they cooperate.

@@spiritualanarchist8162 Yeah it probably is the reason they have a tough time getting witnesses. I'm sure the homicide detectives aren't too thrilled about other cops doing this shit. They're trying to clear bodies, not pull possession charges, but no one will talk to them all the same.

Exactly ... I'm not even in one of those "certain neighborhoods" and even I know not to say anything to the police without a lawyer present. Amazing some people still don't know that (or worse, they know but don't do it).

@@spiritualanarchist8162 I'm sorry I know you posted this a year ago but you are correct about the prison system there are so many people incarcerated in this country because the justice system is extremely flawed you can get more time for nonviolent drug possession then people who are out committing rapes and other heinous crimes which to me is mind blowing if a person has enough mental illness to commit rape then you lock them in a cage for 8 years without addressing the mental illness and then turn them back out onto the street are they rehabilitated at all the answer is now it will happen again however if Jimmy next door to you gets busted with enough pot he can catch 20 years for that no questions asked and be an old man by the time he gets out but here prison is a business what's pre-labor for the state and the companies that run them so to keep the prisons full is in their best interest to make the most money but crazy rapist you're not going to get much work out of him Jimmy the pothead you can work the crap out of him for pennies a day and hopes of a sentence reduction

@@Jartran72 coming from a criminal

I had a prosecutor use that against me during a trial, by making it appear that I "wouldn't cooperate with the police, by not talking to them." Very sneaky and underhanded. My attorney of course objected to this line of questioning and the objection was sustained, on the grounds of the 5th amendment, that I have the right to remain silent. But the damage was done, one of my jurors actually rolled her eyes at me. As if to say, "how dare you not cooperate with the police!?" Apparently even jurors don't know about the 5th amendment. It was disgusting to watch my rights being eroded right in front of me, by The People no less. SMDH

Actually no, you should open your mouth. But only to insist on your constitutional rights to remain silent and your right to speak to your lawyer

I have little faith in jurors. My general feeling is that most people worship the state (police, prosecutors, etc.) and do not believe in "innocent until proven guilty". It's one reason why prosecutors are able to convict 95% of people they try. We've lost a great deal of freedom in this country if most people prefer to worship government vs. preserving their basic rights.

This. The #1 rule. Keep your mouth shut and let your attorney do ALL your talking for you. They have a million ways to convict you and you have only ONE way to avoid being convicted. Cops can and will lie to you about anything to get a conviction. They'll claim "someone" saw you at a crime scene or that they found something illegal in your house/car. Do NOT fall for that. If you have kids, make sure THEY understand this too, because cops will question them without you being present and lie to them, too. ("your dad said it was ok to talk to us." That sort of thing.)

It's just a white mafia with less attractive suits/accents than italy

They cannot testify to something they did not see happen. They can say someone told them, but that is hearsay if that person is not there to attest or signed an affidavit. Isn't that right?

Mike Ni it's the "smart" ones that screw themselves over worst.

And cops always start with the assumption that you are a suspect. There are no such things as innocent witnesses or bystanders. This is not necessarily because cops are evil people. It's actually their job to assume you might be guilty until proven otherwise. In a way a cop's perspective is the exact opposite from a court's perspective. That is because cops are hired to catch criminals, not show people are innocent.

Have offen with just truth talked myself out of trouble, but was always just minor stuff .

What stops cops from just making stuff up, like telling the judge that you confessed everything (even if you remained silent), and then it's your word against the officer.

@Melpheos1er - Yes it can. Read my comment way up top. Also if you are the one calling the cops then of course they can help you. I report illegally parked cars and they had the people move them. How is that not helping me? Jackass!

@@davidjames1684 he means in a possible criminal situation. It can't help you. Anything you say can be used against you, but not for you

@Dan - that was not my experience at all. I said some bad things about the cops that "messed" with me even before the trial and NONE of it was used against me. Instead I caught them in a lie and all my charges went away (either JoA or NG).

@paul w - I "beat" the cops and that makes me a pile of shit? What about those lying doughnut eating bastards? You seem to have some "whacked logic".

@@davidjames1684 I called the cops on a guy who was beating on my door because he was looking for some person but had the wrong address. The cops came and after he was detained, they questioned me about why he was there and despite me saying I had no fucking clue over and over, they assumed I had some involvement with him and some unknown crime. Took about an hour of questions before they finally left me alone. Yeah. They were really helpful.

@Billy Mack, Texas Detective that's incorrect, at least NM and AL (and I assume most other states) have laws mandating you to tell the police your name, address, and current task. "Legit reason" is something to be resolved in court afterwards.

@Billy Mack, Texas Detective I see "reasonable", but not "articulable" nor any requirement to disclose the suspicion. And they can retroactively make up a "reasonable" suspicion after they've arrested me for breaking that law if they're pissed at me for not identifying myself because _I thought_ they didn't have a reasonable suspicion.

@Billy Mack, Texas Detective to be clear, "my theory" is that you will be charged under that law if you refuse to provide name and address to a cop that demands it: they'll arrest you, then _if_ you can manage to take them to court for the wrongful arrest, they'll simply make up some reason they "suspected" you of wrongdoing. And you can't prove they made it up after the fact, so you'll lose the case and still get charged.

@Antun Šturlić I don't understand, this is the exact scinario where police will be trying to incriminate you and a lawyer isn't present that she's directly referring to. Do not give them permission to search your property, do not say anything as much as possible. My example is the EXACT time and place when you would follow her advice.

@Antun Šturlić WTF are you replying to??!!. Where did I say not to give license and registration??? Where did I even MENTION that??? My example was what you do starting at the point where you are asked by police for consent to search; something that was brought up in this video and was advised for you not to give consent to. You are misinterpreting my comment or are unable to read or a troll. Get off the internet or get help.

I live in Arkansas. If you drive in this state, you give implied consent to search.

Antun Šturlić nope- Her advice is to comply with any ORDER. You refuse to consent to search- they need probable cause to search your car and in most States refusing a search is not probable cause. If the cop says he is going to search your car anyway- you LET HIM/HER. If asked to do something, you ask if you are being ORDERED to do so- if not, refuse to do it. If Ordered- comply under protest. She wants you to be able to state in court that you did not agreed to a search. Did not agree to get out of your car- and that means the cop has to PROVE they had probable cause. If they didn’t have probable cause- then even the body they found in your trunk is inadmissible. Many moron not getting out of their car when ordered to or not providing identification is a moron. Now you are at least guilty of obstruction. Of course- it also helps to have NOT DONE ANYTHING ILLEGAL. But the thing is that cops are looking to convict someone. Whether its the right someone is secondary.

Antun Šturlić Actually- No. Police searches get thrown out of court ALL THE TIME in the US because the cop can not prove probable cause. The lawyer knows her shit- You DO NOT CONSENT because that makes the search lawful. If the cop searches anyway- the onus is upon him to justify the search and Judges take the 4th amendment very seriously. People have literally gotten off for murder because the Cop fucked up in unlawfully searching. Its NOT enough for the cop to say he had a suspicion. He has to have a rational reason for that suspicion ( say- an APB for a vehicle the same make, year and color as yours ) And he better have something that doesn’t just smack of ‘well, the driver acted suspiciously and was black )

Cop points a gun at you .. and suddenly your rights completely don’t matter and you have to shut up.

"A cop who wants to talk is probably a cop who wants to trap." change probably into DEFINITELY, do not let a single hesitation slip into your mind. This is a tactic they use for confessions

Wow! I’m listening to “you have the right to be innocent” and I landed here. My beliefs have shattered, they don’t spare even kids, it’s nauseating. I told my 12 year kid immediately about this. Just sad! 😞

The fact that cops are allowed to lie to you, is reason enough to never say a word to them.

What proves we live in a police state is the fact they get away with murder.

What games? You just stay silent except for the words, "Lawyer, please."

She served 5 months and 2 years parole. None of her convictions had anything to do with the actual crimes. All she had to do was not talk to investigators and she would of been free and clear. They sent her up on trumped up charges all because she didn't SHUT UP!

On the Federal level it is illegal to lie to the feds. State and local authorities have no such legal compulsions. They can even lie to you to illicit a confession. Happens every day.

+dixievfd55 if i could thumbs up this comment 10+ times i would .... never give them anything information or permission for anything ever.....

+dixievfd55 - Why not? I did and I made a fool out of the cop. I called him incompetent and wrong and the case got thrown out (null processed) in court. It was funny too cuz I told the cop I would beat him badly in court (meaning make a fool out of him not physically beat him), and the idiot put that in his report. It was so funny. Then after the case was dropped, I called up his supervisor and gave him a verbal lashing too for having such an incompetent subordinate and a corrupt department This whole thing about shutting up is overrated and many times not necessary. If you know you are right and what you did was legal (as was in my case), you can call the cop just about anything under the sun (incompetent, wrong, crooked, corrupt, an idiot, retarded, a jackass...) and that wont be held against you. In my case it actually helped cuz I broke his confidence. I stunned the court when they made me a plea deal but I declined it cuz I knew I was right so seeing my confidence, they had no other choice but to drop the case. I felt like I easily beat the system and you can too if you study the law and know your rights. The looks on their faces was worth the time in court. Even the judge was somewhat surprised. This same thing the cop told me was not legal I do just about everyday cuz he was clearly wrong. It IS legal. There is also no need to be polite. Don't be vulgar but if you know the cop is wrong, it is ok to tell him that and to call him incompetent or corrupt (cuz at least one of those has to be true if he arrests/detains you for something legal). Another "trick" us civilians can do is offend the cops in a question format such as "are you an idiot?". Then he cannot say you called him an idiot cuz you were only asking him to which he could have said no. Just because I ask someone something doesn't mean I am implying they are that, otherwise why would I ask? If I knew someone was/is an idiot then I wouldn't have much reason to ask so by asking, I am implying that I don't know. More to your defense and it annoys them.

So your mug looks suspicious therefore you are under arrest!

Your average "good" American cannot fathom the scenario you proposed! Those are the "I have nothing to hide people".

As a cop, you should have found a better job.

Along with that video, he has an excellent book called "You have the right to remain innocent". It does a good job of giving more examples of truthful things completely innocent people said that got them convicted. All it takes is an officer or witness misremembering something and conflicting with the truthful thing you told them to convince many juries you are guilty. Also, remaining silent or explicitly invoking the 5th CAN be used against you. Immediately ask for a lawyer. If they keep trying to ask questions, say you won't answer any questions until your lawyer gets there. When your lawyer gets there they will tell you not to say anything, and they will be glad you didn't answer anything without them.

What people don't understand is the American Bar Association (ABA) is the very group that put us into this situation. SCOTUS pass these rulings trying to give a little to their protectors the cops without taking it all from the people. Why do they use "case law" to protect themselves from judgement. Why does it take them so long to arrive at a ruling? Do they have a conference call from some higher ups? The ABA on their website says nothing about providing justice for the people but it does say to provide well being for its members as in money. Society becomes more litigious which is more money for the ABA members and then they tell the people to not talk to the police which gives them a reason for their clients to lose cases. They want to blame the people but they are the ones that set it up this way. And so they can put up videos on RU-vid telling us how stupid we are and blaming us for not knowing the convoluted rules of the mixed up process of American Courts.

Exactly that's why persons even if innocent won't talk to cops before a trial because anything provided beyond name and dob is ammunition for out of context or any other manipulation of a person's words. Police and the prosecutor can't twist a person's words when nothing is provided for them to twist, and can't use credible witnesses to refute what a defendant or poi said.

YES! It is an EXCELLENT video.

He's right watch it! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d-7o9xYp7eE.html

Agreed. Merely asking if you need an attorney isn't good enough. You actually have to _ask for an attorney._

Actually this approach isn’t exactly correct. You need to first pointedly ask whether or not you are being detained, or if you are free to go. If they tell you you’re free to go, bounce. If otherwise, THEN say, “I WANT A LAWYER”. Point is, if you just immediately start crying out for an attorney, this absolutely does appear to be incriminating, and this CAN and WILL be used against you in a court of law.

" Everything you say can" AND WILL " be used against you..." And nothing you say will be allowed to be used for you! (hearsay)

Damn right.

Don't answer that!

Or you can say I have invoked my rights and the the 5th amendment.

Never say anything about rights, because then you are talking. If you say something, they could theoretically infer something from what you said.

@@MrTheFallenOne That's the stupidest thing you can say. Talking about the 5th amendment is saying that you're guilty, but you won't specifically state it so.

A "freeman" means freed slave. That is also not what one would want to be claiming.

"For the very idea that one may be compelled to hold his life or the means living, or any material right essential to the enjoyment of life at the mere will of another, seems to be intolerable in any free country where freedom prevails as being the essence of slavery itself." Yick Wo v Hopkins 118 U.S. 356 "...at the revolution the sovereignty devolved on the people; and they are truly the sovereign of the country, but they are sovereigns without subjects... and have none to govern but themselves; the citizens of America are equal as fellow citizens and joint tenants in the sovereignty." Chisolm v Georgia 2 Dall 440, at pg. 471. "People of a state are entitled to all rights, which formerly belong to the King by his prerogative." Lansing v Smith, (1829) 4 Wendell 9,20 (NY) "It will be admitted on all hands that with the exception of the powers granted to the states and the federal government, through the Constitutions, the people of the several states are unconditionally sovereign within their respective states."

@Garret Grant that's what lawyers are for

This did not age well. Now we record a cop, we get shot at.

@xellossaxon well put. I'm South African, even I in what America's tremendous greatest president ever calls a $#!π hole country notice I never have to fear any contact with our police. We have our problems but fearing police concocting something against you is a thing of the past.

@xellossaxon people in japan and Taiwan fear no cops too. I live in Taiwan for some time already

Most places the cops can legally torture you into confessing. The Japanese police only extracts confessions (can hold you for an entire month without formally charging you, can interrogate in shifts so you can literally be grilled 16 hours a day for that month, desperate japanese cops are known to start lopping off fingers, etc). Most places are worse, America is just in everyone's view so every fart we let is documented.

I'm not sure I follow your logic here. If a cop were to say that, I guess he could also say that you confessed to him when the camera was off even though you stated that you would not talk to police, wanted a lawyer, and were invoking your 5th amendment privilege to remain silent when the camera was on. Cop to court: "During a break when the camera was off the suspect, told me that he understood that I was just doing my job, but that I also needed to understand that the victim had it coming." "After the break, when we turned the camera back on, he resumed his silence." If that's the case, it does not matter what you do.

Don't talk to cops even after Miranda Rights COPS LIE!

Yup, you cannot win on the street. Everyone should know that even if your rights are violated, fighting back on the street is not going to end well for you. Let them arrest you and take you in. Your fight will start after that.

William Sonak if its a trafic stop and u do not identify Yourself by giving license and insurance they can arrest you

FUCKTHESYSTEM70​​ if you were speeding a police officer can ask for your driver's license and insurance refusing to give them to him can lead to arrest which is legal they have the right to ask for your driver's license and insurance if they stop you because you are required by law to possess both the driver's license and insurance so they have the right to ask for it if they pull you over with a broken tail light you can be arrested or fined for not having a driver's license or insurance

William Sonak - Yes. My favorite way of saying that is, 'No disrespect intended, Officer, but as a matter of policy I can't answer any of your questions". "What? You don't answer questions...?" "It's just policy... You know how it is....". That's the way it went in DC when I got stopped by the Secret Service. On a side note, the SS agents were likable, polite, and professional. It was the friendliest traffic stop I've ever experienced.

david macko you only have to provide ID if you have committed a crime..

Donn Worry- If the cops want to charge you with a crime or infraction. It doesn't matter if you actually did anything or not.

Actually the cop was being sneaky. If they don't ask questions, the cops don't have to read you Miranda. I would guess that the cop was trying to make statements that you would affirm. That would be incriminating without asking questions. And a way to circumvent Miranda. I've read that many detectives get irritated by patrol cops reading Miranda to suspects since it closes the door on many of the interrogation room tactics.

Bill Ny - the Miranda right is a TRAP. SHUT UP is the only secure way to deal with a cop... With that said... Police can legally hold you up to 72 hours... Next a court appointed attorney will see you AS YOU ARE BROUGHT TO THE JUDGE... Meaning that Lawyer WROKS for the court.. NOT YOU. Every single time I used a Court Appointed attorney that attorney GAVE. My information to the Judge WITHOUT MY CONSENT AND... did not inform me he was going to do it or he had done it. ( I would have embarrassed the court severely each time and "my" court appointed attorney was informed of this... So the court threw out the cases. Once the Judge ordered me to go to the court every week... I of course DID NOT.. I did however show up the first time to see how it worked... Then skipped 3 weeks then went back then skipped a month... I really wanted them to try something asxthey already been stepping in their own fecal matter... Won't let me type in... C.r.a.p.

i had that image of a black guy going "it's fine officer, i'm not flying. man, i swear my two feet are steady on the ground."

This story was terrible.

its amazing to me how many parents NEVER talk to their kids about the police. its like it does not exist.

My son has known this since elementary school. Recognize they have a job to do, don't be belligerent, but don't take the bait.

@@wmluna381 In elementary school, we were taught that cops are our friends.

I agree, interrogating officers are well known for using verbal strategies. So saying "I want a lawyer" could be purposefully misinterpreted by police as not asking for a lawyer - you're just telling the officer that you want a lawyer. However, saying something like "I am requesting to speak to my attorney" is more direct and probably less able to be misinterpreted

I've never understood why it isn't "may be used" instead of "will be used." Maybe to emphasize the gravity of the situation. But I've always wanted to say some absurd shit and challenge them to use it in a court.

@@gregmccauley1687 Because its the truth. Even you name WILL be used AGAINST YOU. And never any different. Thats why if you say nothing. They have nothing.

Sounds like something from Idiocracy

Chris Newman Yahtzee!

And off to jail you go. Because they can.

Not a good idea. Its best to just be extremely vague and non specific. Where are you coming from? - "From just down the road" Do you know how fast your were going?- "Right arround the speed limit" What's your plan here?- "To drive to my destination" If they ask for more specific information. Thats when you ask if you are done here, and then if they say no, then ask if you are under arrest, and if they say yes to that, or say you are being detained, (there is a distinct difference) you then ask for your attorney to be present. You never escalated the situation, you never lied, you were never disrespectful, and you never incriminated yourself for no reason either. Literally the perfect way to respond to police.
