Exercise your Constitutional right to remain silent
If you are under suspicion, have been arrested, or have been charged with a crime, it is extremely important that you exercise your right to remain silent until you have a lawyer present. Be polite, but be firm—do not answer any questions for law enforcement officials or prosecutors until you have spoken to an attorney.
