I honestly don’t understand how you can read that and not interpret it as a clear request for a lawyer. It takes mental gymnastics to assume that he did not, in fact, want a lawyer.
- drewcoo 5y agoNo, it takes "subroutines."
- Spivak 5y agoI don't really think so, I think it's completely unambiguous that "if you think I did it" means "if you actually go through with arresting me." Like it's nuts that the court system rewards deliberate misunderstandings of someone's intent.
- romwell 5y agoOh sure, and the phrase "Why don't you get me a lawyer" is not a request, but a question, the answer to which the police isn't obligated to provide. Sorry, I'm not buying it. The only relevant part is that the words "get me a lawyer" were said, and these words mean - hear me for a second here - that the person in question requested a lawyer.
