Indeed. "Ah ha! How could you know the burglar was wearing gloves if you weren't at the scene of the crime?" No winning there. Never talk to police without a lawyer is good advice, but that advice literally translates to "Never talk to police without paying someone $300 per hour to do it." Meanwhile, police, at no additional cost to themselves, can essentially compel you to talk to them any time they want. So it's pretty easy to push people around with that dynamic, yet most people I talk to seem to bury their head in the sand on the issue. I'm reminded of: George Aaronow: When I talk to the police I get nervous. Ricky Roma: Yes. You know who doesn't? George Aaronow: Who? Ricky Roma: Thieves.
