What do People do Unintentionally to Hurt Their Case?

A lot of people can see cooperation with the police as meaning they have to tell them everything. You don’t need to always need to tell the police everything that they ask. Sometimes you can ask to speak to an attorney or to say, ‘I don’t feel comfortable answering that question’. A lot of people think that cooperation means answering every single question the police officer asks of them, and that’s not necessarily true. Or doing everything that the police officer asks of them. Such as in a DUI case, you don’t necessarily need to do the field sobriety test – you can say no to doing that. Just, I always say to be polite and be cooperative but you also need to be mindful of what you’re telling the police and what you’re doing.
