I was in a situation once where something bad happened to someone else. I will not go into details.  I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.  But, I was seen in the vicinity of the attack.   I talked to a lawyer who, upon hearing my story, said he will be happy to take my money, but if what I told him was accurate, I had nothing to fear.   I cooperated with police without a lawyer present. Maybe it was stupid, but I figured if I give them my DNA, I will be ruled out.  Which is what happened -- I was ruled out quickly based on blood types.[/quote]

OMG, this is wrong on too many levels. Glad it worked out for you, but next time the only word coming out of your mouth should be "lawyer."[/quote]

The lawyer should be brought before the Bar for giving such bad advice. He might be a civil lawyer completely out of his depth. Or maybe he's a former prosecutor who exploits those connections to defend white-collar and other wealthy clients, and "just knows" his buddies won't railroad a fellow white guy who's "a good guy".

Regardless, it's utterly stupid to engage law enforcement and prosecutors without an attorney representing you. There's too much incentive to pin somebody with the crime, and so much to gain from a longstanding record of locking up bad guys.

Since they can't ALL be black or Latinos, there'll have to be a few whites. Don't make it easy to choose you.[/quote]
