Makes me wonder. If you ever are interrogated by police or in a court room.. "Where were you on the night of 22 January 2020?" and "Can't you also remember that you went to ..?". Now if you were guilty the night may have left quite an impression in memory. Not guilty, and you likely answer to every question "Dunno, your honor", making you look really suspicious in the eyes of onlookers.
- lumost 4y agoI suspect that one of the activities a lawyer does in this case is prepping you to answer these questions. Rather than "dunno" the answer could be "It was an unremarkable night, I ate dinner at home, watched netflix, and went to bed". Odds are the browser history/location history on your phone would provide corroboration for the above if needed.

Look over texts, emails, calls, credit card charges, and use discovery from the other side like location data, surveillance footage, and etc. This is ALSO why you don’t ever talk to police. You talk to lawyers. If a cop were to ask you the same “where were you at” question, it’s probably better to not answer at all.
- narag 4y agoIn those cases the assumption is you were made aware of the relevance of that day before, closer to what happened so you could recollect and fix the memories for later questioning. Otherwise that kind of question is ridiculous.
