What Should I Do Now?

Chances are you are reading this after you’ve been arrested and released on bail. However, if you are reading this in anticipation of being arrested, then remember “S.T.A.C.”

“You cannot help your case by talking to the police without a criminal defense attorney.”

S – Shut Up.

If you think that you can talk your way out of it you are wrong. Often people think that they can out smart the police. They will blame someone else, make excuses and say any number of things at the time of arrest. There is nothing that you can say that will help your case. In fact, it is likely that you will make your case more difficult by talking to police.

T – Tell The Police That Your Attorney Wouldn’t Like You Saying Anything.

A criminal defense attorney will always advise you to be polite but don’t say anything to police. The best thing to do is Blame it on your criminal defense attorney by saying something like, “I want to cooperate officer but my criminal defense attorney wouldn’t like me saying anything to you until he is here.” By mentioning your criminal defense attorney, you are letting the police know that you intend to “lawyer-up” and that should stop the questioning.

A – Ask To Call Your Criminal Defense Attorney.

Ask the police if you can call your criminal defense attorney. If you feel that it is important to contact a relative or friend, then instruct that person to call your attorney for you. Remember, “SHUT UP.” Most of the telephones in jail are monitored and recorded by police. When you speak to your someone else on the phone never give them details about your case. You don’t know who is listening. Simply tell them that you are in jail and the reason police gave you for your arrest. The same goes for other prisoners in jail. The “jailhouse snitch” is ready to throw you under the bus to get themselves a better deal.
