I am pretty sure it is lawyers who are suggesting the advice but not sure if that makes it based out of greed. If you look at it from a lawyer's perspective: The majority of my clients who speak to the police(either before or after employing me) have a large amount of trouble. So therefore it is ill advised to speak to the police. What they are missing: All the people who spoke with police and had no problems. It is sample bias.
