I can't be really mad at them, although it's pretty annoying, that's for sure. To give you one glimmer of hope: after police officers at your door, you might get invited for a hearing at the police station with two detectives, they are way more nuanced than the officers on the street. But keep it business-like, because they also ask all kinds of personal questions that have nothing to do with the case at hand. Edit: and remember, you don't have to tell them anything (everything you say can be used against you, although a little cooperation can go a long way). You can always say: if you're so sure about it, then make a case out of it. Edit 2: I'm only talking about The Netherlands here. And my advice is general, not specific to a certain case.

Just for the people reading in the US, if you are unsure, you do NOT have "a right to remain silent" at least not in the sense I think of it. You must actively assert BOTH your fifth and sixth amendment rights More is on the book "you have the right to remain innocent" which I must confess I have not completely read but the gist is fifth and sixth amendment. > He argues that because of Salinas v. Texas, the fact that someone has asserted the Fifth Amendment can be used as evidence against them in court, so he suggests criminal defendants and interrogatees instead invoke the Sixth Amendment, the right to legal counsel.[3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Have_the_Right_to_Remain_Innocent https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Have_the_Right_to_Remain_I...

  Exactly. Different jurisdictions. To clarify, I was talking about The Netherlands only.
