> When you're innocent you think that your innocence means something. It doesn't. Discount it and move on. Exactly, thinking your innocent is going to have you saying WAAAAY MORE THAN YOU SHOULD stuff you are desperate to say thinking everyone's going to "be cool and understanding" What really happens is that you say a tiny thing with a little inconsistency and it undermines your whole defense. Officers will misremember, prosecutors will misconstrue. Shut.the.fuck.up. Your reputation doesn't come back. Half of the population has already made up their mind. Forget about it. You need the case to be weak, and if it continues to court you need the jury to stick with the instructions and not be able to convict.
