is to sit for 15 to 20 years in a prison because you waved your rights and tried talking yourself out of being arrested. Cops do not have their minds changed just because you talked to them, at best you get a short stay of freedom before they show up on your door step with an arrest warrant because you tired talking your way out of something. The only time that works is if you get lucky and don't admit to anything or the cops aren't really interested in pushing a case for whatever reason. Remember you are guilty till proven innocent in a court of law as far as the cops are concerned.
