As a general rule I don't go out of my way to make the LEOs' job more difficult. But there are questions that the police ask that don't need answering.
Like I said I have a family full of LEO's (both Federal and local.) I have heard so many "got one over on the bad guy" stories that it is old hat. The police can lie and stretch the truth to get a confession, but turnabout is not fair play?
I watch cops once in awhile and I laugh at what people tell the police. Sometimes it's better to say nothing at all.
Once upon a time I was at a private party during college. The police had broken that party up 3 times over the fall. When the police knocked at the door I told the guy "Do not open the door." They left. There are limits to what the LEO's can do. Some people do not know those limits.
Note to NDD: She lied to a federal officer. I said policeman. Is that what you meant?
