They make it seem like you will \u201clook guilty\u201d if you don\u2019t tell the police everything that they want to know. Even if you haven\u2019t been charged with a crime you should still be aware that you may be considered a suspect in a criminal case if the police are talking to you. You may not need an attorney if you have an air-tight, truthful, and verifiable alibi. If you don\u2019t, you might want to go ahead and get a lawyer before answering any questions. Remember: You have the right to remain silent. You are not obligated to speak. The police may try to convince you that it\u2019s in your best interests to do so, but you don\u2019t have to. If you talk, speak the truth. Lying to the police can turn into its own criminal charge, even if you\u2019re innocent of everything else! If you choose to divulge information make sure it\u2019s true (to the best of your knowledge). Answer only what\u2019s asked. If you choose to speak there is no need to volunteer more information than has been requested. Listen closely to the question, and offer only what has been requested...."}
