It’s #STFUfriday!
When cops ask you questions, ask for a lawyer and then STFU:
- I am not discussing how I’m doing or where I’m going.
- Am I free to leave?
- I am not answering any questions.
- If they ask to search anything: "I do not consent to a search."
- I want to talk to a lawyer.
The Boston Globe ran this asinine article about how cops can defuse mistrust of cops by starting with why they want to talk.
There are good reasons that cops aren't trusted.
STFU. Lawyer. 🧵
