This is true even before you land in the court room. The best advice is to put as much distance you can between yourself and the entire criminal justice system.

Folks make fun of "justice involved person" but it's capturing a real thing that it's a black hole (heh) that is impossible to escape from completely. Even when you're the victim. You are at your safest when the police have no idea who you are.
- Taek 2y agoI've received professional advice from lawyers multiple times (related to SEC, related to FBI, related to local police, related to international police): "Every time you talk to an entity with enforcement capabilities, you significantly increase your chances of receiving an enforcement action. My clients that maintain a strict policy of never engaging with [regulators, police, justice] all have significantly less enforcement actions than clients who agree to be witnesses, report potential crimes, or otherwise take steps to be a good citizen." (Paraphrased, but I've received advice like that across many areas of justice/regulation)

- JumpCrisscross 2y agoNot sharing proof of ownership because it’s super confidential should be the red flag it obviously is.
