I support the police 100% but I also couldn’t agree more. Never ever talk to them. Always exercise your rights no matter what. I have first hand experience with giving them a statement only to have it come back looking like a complete work of fiction. Cost my family $25k in legal fees.

I'm very sorry to hear about that experience of yours and the fees involved. That's a shame and I hate to hear things like that.
But, I'm glad you've given us a good example of why one should follow these professionals' advice -- both the law professor/lawyer and the professional police investigator -- both saying the same thing.
And we've heard from another FReeper or two on the matter. They are telling us (from direct experience) to never ever talk to the police...
You and me both, brother.
They can never hold what you didn’t say against you.
