Then allow me to say it for you: if anyone has unitiated contact with a lawyer - meaning one that is not your own - don't trust them at all! That lawyer does not represent you or your interests. S/he is there for a reason that may be counter to yours. Use caution, speak carefully (if at all), and consult your own attorney if things go past your comfort level.
True.
We're back the reading comprehension issue. Because the harm that one might suffer from a bad cop (including generally good cops who are having a bad day), then the following advise holds:
If anyone has unitiated contact with a LEO - meaning one that you did not call - don't trust them at all! That LEO does not represent you or your interests. S/he is there for a reason that may be counter to yours. Use caution, speak carefully (if at all), and consult your own attorney if things go past your comfort level.
Also true.
Hmmm, I say that we/I allow that LEO mistakes happen and that we/I forgive them due to the nature of the LEO job and you then assail me for ... what?
Again, if you want the people at large to be comfortable with LEOs in general, then weed out the ones that cause us to be suspicious. Just as I don't blame the CHiP who puts a hand on his gun when he approaches me while I am changing a tire on the side of the road, so to you should forgive me for being circumspect of his intent.
No argument here.
As the old saw goes-
Be nice. Be polite. Be respectful. Have a plan how to kill everyone you meet.
