Reblogging to add: YOU MUST UNAMBIGUOUSLY CLAIM YOUR RIGHTS TO BOTH A LAWYER AND TO SILENCE FOR THEM TO COUNT. This means you have to actually say āI am not speaking to you any longer without an attorney.ā And then you have to SHUT. UP. No matter what. If you reengage with them in any manner, you have WAIVED your rights. The US Supreme Court in all of their majestic wisdom has decided thatĀ staying silent is not enough to exercise your right toĀ silence. The police know that their interrogations have to stop once you tell them you wonāt speak with them without a lawyer. If all you do is remain silent, they will KEEP INTERROGATING YOU. Now repeat after me: āI am not speaking to you without an attorney present. I am invoking my right to an attorney and to silence.ā And say nothing else.Ā
Iām not a lawyer, but this is how shit goes down.Ā
