So, now I’m curious… how often do you find out that the person who is getting arrested actually did that? How often does that ever occur?

Not very often. No.

You would think, after so many years and abogados practicing and it being everywhere, that people would understand that.

I’ve had people who have been in and out of the criminal justice system for years. And you would think they would know better. But they just can’t help themselves. They have to say something, or they have to answer a question. They feel like there’s still a way to either talk themselves out of it, or because of some type of internal feeling of having to say something, they can’t help themselves.
There’re very few people who been as calm enough to simply say, “lawyer”. I say lawyer… and put your head down. Because most good investigators will develop a conversation with you. They will talk about… seeing you play football in high school and make you comfortable, and they’re doing their job, that’s what they do. But if you eliminate the conversation, you say, “lawyer” and put your head down on the table, that gives you a better chance of getting through the whole process, and giving me a better chance to help.
