Interrogations like this don't happen often where the suspect outsmarts the detectives and knows EXACTLY what to do... but today we cover 4 cases where the suspect outsmarts the cops in interrogation
Ain't that the truth...the justice system is so screwed up. I used to believe in our justice system...until they stabbed my fiance in the back over a statement alone with no other evidence. They adjudicate you guilty before there is even an investigation...just disgusting
@@yodaxarmy9357 yeah by drug addict girlfriend that he allowed to be privy to the information. Not the smartest person in my opinion 🤷♂️ I think people are so used to seeing dumb criminals tell on themselves that they think when someone doesn’t confess in an interrogation room that they’ve somehow outsmarted police lol
As a lawyer it’s so nice to see people who know their constitutional rights - even if some of them were guilty. Cops lie, don’t talk to them without a lawyer even if you know you’re innocent.
Jeff specifically asked for one and was not provided one, they could also just get a plain clothed officer to play the part for false confession. ACAB don't trust a thing those pigs say to you including the miranda
@@Ch0senJuanyes because the very common job of lawyer, and their likelihood of being interested in a video like this, is so unlikely that a hyperbolic comparison to the united states president is warranted. some of y’all are really just chewing your fingers waiting to call anyone out for anything. silly goose behavior.
Respect to Jeff. Good to hear that he's turned his life around. Proves that it is possible. Shame on the police for their interrogation technique. Refusing to help him when in pain to get him to confess is a kind of torture.
They even went and ignored his rights. They kept asking him questions after he requested to see a lawyer. They didn’t even supply him with one. The detective should be fired.
@@GraspThis666 what is the code for the crime of asking a suspect questions after they request a lawyer? what is the penalty? you can't answer because in most cases it is not a crime. and since it is not a crime there is no punishment in the law for it. the information received after such a request may not be admissible in court but that doesn't make it a crime to ask.
@@psilocybemusashi If you request a Lawyer you can not legally be asked questions until one is provided for you, my Wife just confirmed this and she is going to law school right now and has full marks, I also just asked her father who is a Judge, so i trust their opinion on this.
Help him in pain? He is a complete utterly monster he killed a human being without any care! And he expects to be treated like a baby??? What people are thinking? Well there is a saying there is always good and bad but nothing to either in good there is bad and vice versus holds true with lying…
@@Mr_Gemini61 No, they will absolutely lie to you to get you to talk about anything pertinent to their case. They did it to my brother; police lied to him that I had come to then with information. I'm notoriously ACAB, so my brother was immediately aware of their game and just called for his lawyer. Cops can and will lie, even if it's illegal.
That’s definitely not what makes our system corrupt. During an interrogation, especially for something like homicide, lying to the suspect about how much they know can completely turn around the case. It’s a tactic used a lot to corner or manipulate the suspect into believing the detectives know what really happened. Of course this tactic is annoying when the suspect is innocent but it also has sealed a lot of confessions from murderers.
@@IIcute24 as someone who did the same from a different angle of the wrong side of the tracks. Very glad for Jeff. Saw so many smart ppl with real worth slip through the cracks.
What so many people don't understand is that withdrawal from drugs/alcohol isn't just torture it's also deadly. I'm a nurse and the amount of people I've had to help through withdrawal while being in hospital for other things is insane. It's a scary thing that I hope no one has to go through but if you do I'm sending love and best wishes from Australia ❤
2 of the most dangerous drugs to withdraw from is Alcohol & Xanax. I'm sure there are others but the 2 I named above can absolutely kill a person without professional help.
That's not generally true of opioids. Of common drugs, only *severe* alcohol or benzo withdrawal is consistently deadly. Severe opioid withdrawal is hell but it isn't deadly unless you have some pretty serious underlying issues that means your body can't handle the stress.
12:20 "What time was this?" "Whatever time the cameras show me NOT robbing NO damn body. That time." Priceless, I love it, this interrogation is a very close second behind Jeff.
That’s because he was not guilty and the cops doesn’t have clear evidences to charge him ! He’s very clever .. but still he spent 2 days in jail . Idk if this was legal ..
Jeff is an absolute legend. The fact that someone can withstand questioning while withdrawing is just incredible. A smart man, who made some terrible decisions. Glad he could turn his shit around
In this video it says that he was released 12 hours later but Jeff himself said they kept him until they eventually charged him and I think he did somewhere between 2 to 4 years for something he didn't do and went through withdrawal in prison. He gets harassed by the police in that county when out in public to the point he had to take legal action to get them to leave him alone
Always told myself I wouldn't talk to any detectives and demand a lawyer. Assume their goal is ALWAYS to schmooz you, make you feel comfortable, and pin you as guilty no matter how innocent you are. Going to prison when you're guilty sucks, going to prison when you're 100% innocent is fucking demonic.
As a former opioid addict myself I can say that withdrawal is hell. And cops LOVE when addicts are in withdrawal cuz it means they’re vulnerable. Oftentimes they’ll get them to give up information so they can get the hell outta there. Jeff maintained a ridiculous level of composure for someone who was already dope sick.
Not just dope sick but dope sick from methadone which is 100,000,000x more brutal. I kicked that shit cold turkey in a cell. Worst experience of my life
Also a recovering heroin addict (Clean for five years.) First I'd like to say that my life would be very different if it weren't for a few extremely humane and empathetic officers who treated with respect and took the time to listen to me. I will never forget them, I wish I was in a state back then to get their names so I could personally thank them today. So to the officers that really are out there to serve and protect, we do remember you. It's amazing how one small act of kindness from someone you would never expect to get it from can make such a drastic change in someone's life. That being said more than often I was continually gas lit, even told by a police officer that me surviving my overdose made his job more difficult. Usually young officers who want to throw their power around and they really don't appreciate ever being challenged on their horrible behavior. I really wish the officers that I look back and admire felt like the majority but in Chicago I just don't think that's the case.
That's truly awful. I'm an ex heroin addict as well. 8 years clean. Just wanted to say good for you and I love reading comments like this. To the point, it's truly heinous how they view us. As just dead beat losers who choose to remain this way and we're better off dead or rotting in prison. I can't even begin to describe to you how scared I was of the police when I was using. It's not right that addicts should feel like they are criminals and bad people just for being addicts. I needed help, not this ever looming threat of a prison sentence. That just made me not give a shit about getting clean all that much more because it felt hopeless, and it made me feel like there was no help. If most officers were compassionate and caring individuals like the ones you describe, we'd have a lot less addicts on the streets. Imagine a world where you can go up to an officer, hand them your drugs, and ask to get clean without a threat of going to jail. Imagine they would take you to a treatment center instead. Then get you the help you need instead of ruining your life and ensuring you stay an addict for many more years to come by dropping possession charges on you. Can you imagine how many lives that would save?? Addicts would know they have a clear path to getting better through any cop they see. Instead, addicts are the enemy. We are seen as no better than murderers and thieves. Cops shouldn't be our enemy, and we shouldn't feel afraid of them as addicts(and really in a more general sense but... besides the point). The fact that this is such a foreign concept means we have done something very very wrong along the way with regards to how we view addicts, substance abuse disorder and addiction in general. I always like to say, imagine cops treating someone with diabetes the way they treat a drug addict. Because they are both broadly clinically recognized diseases by the medical community. Now that I'm clean, I can imagine how much sooner I may have gotten help if not for the stigma and the inability for police to understand how to help addicts as opposed to punishing them. Punishing them just ensures there will be more addicts than you started out with. I'm not saying their shouldn't be consequences for your actions... But the action of simply being an addict in active use and addiction should not require punishment in and of itself.
@@steveyuhas9278 Actually in my town you can. Whether I trust them is another thing but they do have a camera free area where you can drop all your drugs and the police department will supposedly help. I don't know anyone who has done that though. Agree on everything else. If I wasn't so terrified and felt like it wouldn't even make a difference to be clean. It's a horrible mentality and really just shows how much more training is needed.
you met the 10% of cops thats good,congrats... cause in my city none of them are good and non e of them care about you, but they are good making it look like they care
Talk to police all you want. Under the supervision of your legal counsel haha. Never talk to police without a lawyer present. Even if they have you on camera, with a name tag, and a full HD pic of your face. Get a lawyer, not guilty please.
@@ASAPLegal That's virtually impossible. You'd drive yourself insane in there just being mute when most people are trying to get to know you and be cool. Unless your only doing a short period of time like a week or two. The thing that sucks about solitary is that there's nobody to talk to (although I never went to solitary). You'd probably get robbed in there if you have nobody looking out for you. Don't view inmates as friends though.
Who is Mark?? Is that that male detective on David Wright case .....that detective is real dude he even gave him a chance to make things right and walk away whit that trigger flinch thing .....i felt he's not about lock people up but to lock up right people....guilty ones!!
Dude tried to rip me off when I tried to sell him a letter signed by George Washington. His George Washington letter expert that he had around the store said my letter was worth $100,000 but he only offered me $1000 Last time I'll ever go there
Jeff was the most impressive if you go this risky route of talking to Detective without representation. Despite going through withdrawals he was still able to hold his own. Nevertheless a normal law abiding citizen that was just caught in the wrong place at the wrong time just be silent and ask for a lawyer. Don't let your curiosity of what the cops have get the better of you. As Jeff said the State has to provide the evidence they have against you through Discovery.
yeah that's pretty hardcore honestly in withdrawals all they'd need to do is promise me methadone and i'd confess sitting there in that cold room detoxing must have been HELL
Depending on the situation.. if your parent/parents are a cop(s) Make sure you let it be known. A cop will at least make sure your cell is okay. No special treatment besides your cellmate selection. But its important.
@@mimi.dixon.bdepends on the person…… If you request a lawyer you don’t have to continue talking You also have the right to remain silent You don’t need to talk to police Police make you uncomfortable to get you to talk Do the smart thing and always request a lawyer and request what evidence they have on you
Jeff smashed it, given the circumstances of what he was physically, mentally & emotionally having to deal with he still had the clarity of mind to play this police officer like a cheap fiddle! Great work 💯🇬🇧
"You've gotta convince me." No, _you_ have to prove _me_ *guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.* If this isn't proof that our legal system is an absolute circus, I don't know what is. A person is innocent until proven guilty, and the burden of proof is NOT on that accused, but on the prosecution.
@@TheHighScotsMan420 Hello from across the pond! And I agree, and feel that it all comes back to the famous quote by Lord Acton, "All power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely." During these interactions, the immediate (and feeling of absolute) power belongs to the officers. We shouldn't have to wait to redeem our rights at the courthouse, but that's where we are, unfortunately.
@@robroboto You don't have to, he's on youtube, you can see for yourself. Looks like he's off the sauce but still has a long way to go. H changes you in a way that takes years sometimes a decade to revert.
i agree, this could lead to innocent people being falsely arrested because they might say something wrong that could be used against them despite their innocence due to their lack of understanding of the situation
@@Kettvnen Some studies show up to 5% of jailed people are innocent. With 2.3 million people in the US prison system, that's up to 115,000 innocent people rotting in jail. Absolutely mind boggling. Looking at Jeff interrogation I can see how that happens. They knew he didn't do anything but still tried to use trick questions that might make it look like he confessed. When you look at the numbers the amount of injustice is just insane.
@@wifeyb.9779 Doesn't matter if it takes 5 years, you never speak to police without a lawyer, and police legally can't refuse your right to a lawyer.
If cameras were around like this 15-20 years ago i would have multiple cases against my towns police department. Had one where i was cuffed, booked without being told what i was under arrest for. Finally after prints and pictures were taken i asked for the 10th time what i was under arrest for and both cops looked at each other like they didn't know. They call upstairs to their superior and i heard him say im going to have to call you back to see what we can charge him with. The cops saw my reaction, so they knew i heard what he said. Granted charges were thrown out but during a 4 year period of time i was arrested at least 5 times with zero proof of a crime being committed. I had two cops that for some reason hated me and in that same period of time i was pulled over at least 50 plus times. A few raids where the worst thing found was baby plants which are now legal. The way they get you on small charges is getting a probation officer to violate you because it's harder to fight that than in a lot if cases a gun charge. That violation is like fighting a fed charge.
The biggest problem is most people feel like a good lawyer will be expensive. Take that public defender and get all the evidence instead of letting the interrogator paint you into a corner with methodical questioning
Yeah except being in a small town and asking for a lawyer but then having them continue talking to you well then also looking for a lawyer afterwards who would actually take the case but nobody does tells me that most people should just shut up and not say anything until they get directly in front of a judge. Plead your case then and if you have nothing to worry about hope it's good.
@@ThatGuy-cx9zqPolice can't do that. Asking for a lawyer ceases all questioning. Sure, you'll have to sit around and wait for one, but they aren't supposed to ask you anything else regarding the incident.
@@OlympusPublicAffairs Technically, yes, but that's not how it really goes. There's no law against continuing to have a casual conversation with you and if _you_ happen to say something about the case, well, that's on you.
I once saw an officer tell an innocent man that they had video evidence of him doing it. - He said: ok then use that. - The officer then started stuttering and muttering....
@@wallynwn Jail isn't mean to "help" people. It's mean to demean them. It teaches grudges and resentment. Thus the people on the outside learn that lesson. Breeding killers from ignorance with good intentions. I am not speaking metaphorically here.
@@Veldazandtea just because it isn't meant to help doesn't mean it doesn't help. i'm just saying jail isn't for everyone, and some people really do come out as better people. it would be pretty hypocritical of the law to arrest these people without helping them or anything cause then it wouldn't make any sense to let them go if they're still as bad as they where when they where arrested.
@@wallynwn The law is hypocritical. When people teach grudges and resentment then that's what others learn. What if good is one of the highest causes of depression? Of which I know it is.
It’s pretty amazing how many cops and prosecutors, are willing to do what ever they can, to put innocent people in jail. They shouldn’t even be allowed to arrest or interrogate ANYONE, without 100% proof they’ve done the crime.
It’s a bit different when you’re the victim. Think about that for a sec. What if something happened to you and you needed the police to get involved and they say we don’t have 100% proof this person did anything.
@@tarrencestewart9782 that’s fine with me. Let think about how many times someone is actually lying about the situation. Or embellished what really happened. So I’ll drop my percentage to 99% proof of a crime. That’s the problem in the USA. Everyone is guilty until proven innocent. The EXACT opposite of the constitution.
Prosecutors or District Attorneys are elected in most states by county voters so they want the case solved. Since the voters control their job. The district attorney wants a case solved since it could affect his job. So yes innocent people end up convicted and put in prison. Sad and get a lawyer before you say anything.
@@islixxn listening a little longer in no way connects to wanting to appear innocent, if he REALLY wanted that, he would've asked for that lawyer from the get-go.
Jeff “you the good cop?” Detective “No usually, I’m the prick!” Jeff “you look like a prick” Jeff is a goat for that line! He had that detectives brain scrambled 😩🤦🏽♀️🤣 Now that’s the definition of eff around and find out!!!!
I love the video bro! But just a quick correction: If you're facing charges or there's a suspicion that you may be involved in said violation, all of the evidence that's been collected against you will not be presented to your Lawyer just because he/she shows up at the station for your interview/interrogation. Your Lawyer will be told what the charges are, he/she might even be able to read the field investigator's summary of the charges.....but the only way to get the detailed list of evidence complied (witness testimony, forensic evidence etc) against you aka your 'Discovery' is if you have turned down the Plea Deal that was offered after arraignment & are awaiting your Preliminary Hearing, which is when all of the evidence will be presented to the Judge in the court of Law. During an interrogation, like the one in this video, your Lawyer will only be presented with the charges, nothing else. Love the content man, keep up the good work!
With dababy.. he doesn’t need a lawyer because he believes and knows that he can get through it and a person like him knows time is money. A lawyer means waiting for him and often times a lot of formalities. He is ready to get back to his hustle
Jeff’s was the best one especially with the outcome of him cutting those puppet strings of getting sober “wham bam thank you for the coke put me back in my cell” 😂
what's even better than having an attorney during an interrogation is to refuse any questioning, altogether. the entire purpose of an interrogation is to get the suspect to help with convicting him/her self.
The first guy said too much to incriminate himself, by adding that Jeff was kicked out of the club for stealing, and implementing that he had numerous occasions they dealt with him stealing. That nailed him as one of the perpetrators of Jeff's murder.
As a recovering addict who snorted heroin for 20+ years I am glad for how things have turned out for Jeff. I was living a double life in silence amidst people that never had any idea of the extreme troubles I went through all alone, with one life as a criminal, full of horrors that you cannot share with anyone and situations much much worse than this where Jeff was, but from which I managed to survive, and one life as a normal every day dude. I respect Jeff most of all because he was smart, streetsmart in this case, as you can never be that cool if you haven't already gone through the works before, and he was also brave enough to hang tough (especially in those conditions where you would betray yourself 175 times just to be relieved from the pain and extreme anxiety of heroin withdrawal, even worse in his case as I think he was shooting it up his veins), against the hypocrites of the system, a system which was constructed to keep people like him pinned down to the ground or inside a jail cell just so they can fullfill their arrests quota. Imagine, the absurdity of this facade of public security being the core of America "the land of the free". I am glad he has turned his life around as that is the most difficult battle one can ever go through, a daily struggle while walking a razor thin line, while trying to live a normal and dignified life. The more i see footage like this the more I am glad I live in Europe.
Gosh i agree with this so much. Good for you. I’m trying to talk my hubby out of the US rn. He’s a European citizen but weirdly opposed actually. This country is quickly becoming an embarrassment.
hey, pimp. I never actually looked at the length of this video before i clicked on it so I kept thinking the video was over after every clip was finished and i got so excited every time another clip began. Excellent content, man. Keep it up!
The outcome of Jeff's story makes me happy. I remember when JCS made a video about Jeff and at the end of the video JCS mentioned that Jeff may have been picked up a few days later for the robbery... So it makes me happy to see that he wasn't picked up and that he changed his life around .
I remember when I was 15 or so, I went to a talk at an anarchist book club. It was a presentation from a criminal defense attorney about interacting with police. It mostly boiled down to "don't talk to police". Words to live by.
ALWAYS take the option to remain silent around police, they are NOT your friends and they are ALWAYS looking for you to say something incriminating, even if you are walking alone at night beware that they see you as as suspicious even if you walk alone at night for your whole life.
But the cops know that and they use a whole pile of tricks to get you to talk anyway. First, they send secret police and confidential informants to befriend you, get your guard down, lull you and get you to slip up. Secondly, the cops themselves will say they 'Just want to talk to you, have a conversation, clear some things up, get your side of the story' etc. Third, they will plan and stage street theatre and various events around you, in your life, so that you won't know it's police-staged but somehow, they will get a reaction out of you, get you angry, scared, or, get you thinking the cops are on your side. Whatever tricks they can use, based on your psycholgical profile, also based on them bugging your house or apartment with hidden cameras and mics, spyware on your phone and computer, plus the GPS in your phone, plus flying a drone high above you to watch where you go, they will use, to make money processing you, to provoke you and entrap you, using the arrest-prosecution-detention process itself to torture you to death.
Jeff has truly been blessed. I remember when I was on heroin I caught a felony possession charge, but by working the AA program the charges were dropped a year later.
thank you jeff for turning your life around !!!!, i was not aware of my nephew's drug addiction if i was i would try my best to help him , i miss my my little guy he was 28 when he passed 2 years ago r.i.p jonny g !!!
“Wham bam! you gave me a coke put me back in the cell!” Is a god tier line because he's saying he came here just cuz to get the free drink that only criminals know you ALWAYS get 😂
Yes. Even you are innocent: Take a laywer! People believe If they answer or Talk ... It will be good for them. Police, there, is never your friend. Never. But, for Sure. They must act Like that.
I love it when people actually KNOW their rights... Like the old saying... "If you don't know your rights then you don't have any rights."... and I love it when people can see through a police detective's lies and ridiculous lengths they will go to in order to get a confession... My favorite classic being "We all make mistakes" or "This is your only chance to redeem yourself and show people that you're not a monster" and so on etc... Interrogators are bigger liars than politicians... The first guy from the motorcycle club is my favorite... Short answers... To the point... And all his answers pointing AWAY from him... Bravo!
@@stillwatersrundeep001 Lying is lying weather it's from the perp or the cop... As humans of course we don't want to confess to a crime we committed because we know the consequences... And don't tell me that "They should have thought about the consequences before they committed the crime" because murders in the heat of passion happen a LOT... Like a guy coming home and catching his wife in bed with another man... In most cases that would end up with the husband killing his wife or both of them because he's not thinking rationally out of pure RAGE... Interrogators use so many of the same old boring tactics to get people to confess that im surprised these perps can't see right through the interrogators lies... "We all make mistakes buddy come on"... "The truth will set you free" Every single person who ends up confessing is overlooking one KEY point and that key point is if the cops truly have enough evidence against you that you would already be arrested and charged with the crime... There would be NO NEED for them to get ANY more information from you if they felt that they had enough evidence for a strong case against you... Walking out the door or asking for an attorney is your best bet from not serving a life sentence in prison... Yet these morons think talking to COPS is a better answer... The people who WANT to put you behind bars... Come on this is common sense... As far as the interrogators... They don't give a shit about what happened or who was killed... It's a psychological game and every time a police investor gets a confession it's like another notch in their belts... They look good in front of their peers and eventually work their way up the ladder like any "job" to earn higher ranks and better pay... Im so glad I took criminal psychology for a little while... But these videos are helping me to learn even a little more like... How to keep my posture and shoulders up instead of crossing my arms in a way that looks defensive on my part... I hope to God I don't end up in an interrogation room but it would be fun to mess with the interrogator(s) heads when they try to use a tactic on me that I already know how to respond to so I don't incriminate myself and so on... It would be hilarious to watch them get frustrated... Like after they've been building rapport with me id say something like "You're good at building rapport with a suspect... I can see why you chose this career!" BOOM! Curve ball because they don't even expect us to know what the rapport or Reid technique is 😆 Like I said im pretty law abiding for the most part im just saying if God forbid anything like this happened to me if I accidentally got caught in a sticky situation... Who knows? This world is a crazy place...
@@nickf527 As humans we feel guilt and know inside that we SHOULD face the consequences of our actions. That's what sets us apart from animals. Even if you might be scared to confess yourself, that doesn't mean you should encourage people to not confess their crimes! True a lie is a lie whether it's from a perp or a cop, then why are you saying it's not ok for the cops to lie but justified for the perp to lie their way out of an interrogation? Anyway, "We all make mistakes" - "The truth will set you free" - "This is your only chance to redeem yourself and show people that you're not a monster" - These are the examples you've given so far, correct? Which of these are lies? Aren't they all true?
@@stillwatersrundeep001 When I say that an interrogators use tactics like "The truth will set you free" or "Do you want to look like a monster or someone who manned up and told the truth" Those are typically last stitch efforts by an interrogator because they've failed at every other tactic they've used. You're gonna live with the fact that you did what you did either way... But id rather live with it as a free man...
@@stillwatersrundeep001 No those statements are standard police interrogation tactics and trying to level with the accused and build rapport is kind of a last stitch effort to them... You're saying the truth will set you free... Not really in his case because he knows if he talks too much that he will go to prison where he can feel better about himself getting his teeth knocked out every day because all of a sudden his conscience is cleared... One thing you have to understand is that I despise most of humanity and what the world has become and it seems to me that human life is becoming less and less valuable... I get more upset about those ASPCA commercials than any other charity commercial... It's not that I don't care it's just that I love animals and my dogs and no human being has ever expressed unconditional love to me other than them... I don't even think humans are capable of unconditional love... But with that out of the way if it helps you understand where im coming from a little bit more humans do have some similar traits as animals... A bear doesn't want to get caught in a bear trap and killed just like a human doesn't wanna get caught and go to prison for life... I simply complimented someone who KNOWS his rights like we ALL should... It gives us a chance to fight back and why people aren't smart enough to ask for an attorney... You think those interrogators REALLY care about who was killed? Their job is to extract potential information from a suspect to get promotions and further their careers in law enforcement... That's it... The truth might set you free but not to a cop lol Either way that person has to live with what he did either as a free man or in prison... So it's only LOGICAL for someone to not want to admit to a crime... If they are dumb enough to realize that an interrogation is nothing but a pre-staged act then maybe their stupid asses deserve to go to prison... Other than that the BOTTOM LINE is that I was simply complimenting a man who knew his rights and was smart enough to know that interrogators are liars... You say what you say now but being a human sometimes we commit crimes in the heat of passion and even the nicest people get pushed over the edge sometimes... So someday you just might end up hurting someone and I GUARANTEE you'll be scared to death and want to lie through your teeth to do anything to keep yourself from a life in prison... That's the bottom line... Bravo for his knowledge of his rights but that doesn't make what he did ok... Killing isn't ok...
Agreed. In the real world you will simply be booked without further questioning. They aren't waiting around for a lawyer who 99.9% of the time isn't going to run down to the police station/ jail on 5 minutes notice (unless you already have a retainer set up with him). Even if a lawyer does show up, he is just going to tell the cops you aren't answering anything anyway. This isn't "law and order" or Better call saul" where everyone sits around shooting the breeze and trading barbs. So ... simply assert your right to remain silent, let them arrest you if they want, make bond if possible, and then call a lawyer. ~signed former prosecutor and criminal defense attorney.
