This is why you never talk to a cop.
You can only talk yourself INTO trouble. You can never talk yourself OUT of trouble.
If you're ever asked to talk to the police, you say "I invoke the 5th and do not talk to police"
Make sure you invoke the right. Being wishy-washy about it doesn't count.
If ever detained, continue invoking the 5th, as well as state outright you want to talk to a layer.
Just don't talk. Don't have a conversation. Don't tell them what you had for breakfast. If they want to talk, they can talk to your lawyer. That's what they are there for.
