Don't talk to cops....

An old legal saying is "A lawyer who defends himself has fool for a client...and idiot for a attorney>" I was reminded of this watching a defense attorney give his points and the rebuttal witness of the police investigator.

The defense attorney makes valid points on how a person of an innocent state of mind may make statements that can come to bite him in the ass. And the investigator explains how he will use one trick after another to get a statement. Worth the 48 minutes if you want a good overall look at the investigation from both sides of the table.
