1. Why would such a high-ranking officer not know basic interrogation techniques? He doesn't know how CID or others who interrogate suspected terrorists repeat their questions to trip up suspects to get to the truth? Even a nobody like me knows that's a long proven interrogation technique.
2. Why would Flynn attend a FBI interview without an attorney? Was he just naive?
3. Why would he lie about what appears to be an innocent meeting with Russians?
I really don't get why Gen. Flynn let himself get caught up in perjury to the FBI. And yes, it is a crime to lie to LEO's, even street Cops.
Was he just naive?
Basically. He got outsmarted by the ugly tactics employed through James Comey’s FBI.
