And it can happen to anyone.
Wrong place, wrong time, big problems.
Most important thing to know, and I'm so glad we got a chance to tell your audience this, is if you do get picked up and you're suspected of a crime, just say your name, your address, and then say the following words, I want a lawyer, and then shut the f*** up.
Because nothing you can say, it doesn't matter if you're innocent.
And most people, ironically, most innocent people waive their Miranda rights because they think, why would I need my Miranda rights?
I'm innocent.
I'll tell the truth and just like on TV, I'll go home.
Well, you know what?
That's your first mistake and it may be your last mistake because once they start talking to you, they have all sorts of ways of getting you to say stuff that you would never imagine that you would have gone and said because you didn't know because you're up against forces that you cannot control and they may not be smarter than you, but they certainly are more experienced than you are and they want one thing, which is to solve this case.
That's very well said.
And I talk about that a lot, how...
It is that we have reverse and even perverse incentives for people to close the case.
You know, an attorney who's been practicing for over 40 years, a defense attorney in California, told me that he'll often at the end of his closing argument, he'll say to the jury, when the prosecutor goes back to his office,
No one's going to ask him, did you get justice?
They're going to say, did you win?
And we're in the culture in this world of winning.
And when you think about it, they're getting pressure from their boss who might be bringing pressure from their boss who's going, Pablo, clean this shit up.
It's getting hot, right?
I don't, I got a reelection coming, whatever it is.
Do this.
