they can be sneaky in their questions.
One time a real estate partner and I needed to exchange paperwork concerning a few contacts, so we agreed to meet at a parking lot where our paths intersected. We met and his car had no room on his front seat so he sat in my ‘69 camaro.
After about ten minutes a squad car rolls up and we’re asked what we’re doing. With papers and folders apparent we told him as I just explained. Please get out of the car. We do. Small talk after giving our DL’s back and he comments “that’s a really nice car...mind if I look at it?”
He then proceeded to search the car everywhere.
Causal question was really disguised as consent to search. I protested and he replied “you consented”.
Found nothing
NEVER talk to the police.
How Miranda rights should be.understood;
“EVERYTHING you say or do WILL be used against you and NOTHING you say or do will be used in your defence.”
It’s a trap
