4. DO NOT talk to the police
without a lawyer. Law professors and retired cops will tell you this. If get caught in a case and you are unlucky, you could get caught in a real mess no matter what your original role was. If the officers of the law you are involved with are unscrupulous or caught in a pressure cooker, you could be in real trouble.

In a lot of cases, some of the people that are given extra scrutiny are the first witness or witnesses. You may think you are doing your civic duty only to find yourself under a microscope.

Ask for a lawyer and don't say anything else.
