I mean, I really just feel like the best thing you can do is to just, like, invoke as many rights as you can to protect yourself on the back end when it actually matters, like, with resolving the case.

I don't think you should worry about, like, oh, is the cop going to think I'm guilty if I – you know what I mean?

Or, like, what is the cop going to think?

Like, I don't think we should care.

I think, like, as far as, you know, you definitely want to make sure that it's, like, a safe encounter and you're complying.

Yeah.

you know, giving them your information and like being polite.

But as far as, yeah, searches or admitting to anything, I definitely don't do that.

Like what might seem incriminating

from the public's perspective, is actually going to probably help you get a better outcome in the actual criminal case by keeping your mouth shut, getting an attorney right away.

It all really depends.

Maybe sometimes it would be better to testify, but I'm just like, generally speaking, I think attorneys are usually pretty aware that the prosecutor is going to

Um, that's so interesting to me because like you are very authentic.

I feel like, I feel like you, I try to be, I really feel like I know you from, you know, but, um, so that's, that's interesting.

Do you feel like that constant sense of, um, like being watched or like having to self edit, um,

makes it difficult for you to be yourself?

Absolutely.

They will just like do crime online, live stream it.

They'll, I mean, it's just, yeah, definitely kids don't do crimes and post it on social media.

No, I would say that by the time it gets to me, it's like the prosecutor has already, you know, gotten any evidence that they need.
