Defense attorney co sign.
You make your attorneys job harder when you speak to the cops.
They will say you’ll get a shorter sentence if you cooperate. You won’t.
They will encourage you to reveal things once you’re at a grand jury. Don’t.
They will bring in other ‘not cops’ like a social workers, therapist, expert. Keep your mouth shut.
Talking never ever works. This has been studied again and again. For one example, read up on The Green Scare: https://crimethinc.com/2008/02/22/green-scared
I quote
“The Green Scare cases show that cooperating with the government is never in a defendant’s best interest. On average, the non-cooperating defendants in Operation Backfire are actually serving less time in proportion to their original threatened sentences than the informants.”
This is a really good article on direct action and risks, anarchist history, etc. Would strongly recommend.
Yes yes yes. I was focussing on that one part there but THIS LONG ARTICLE IS WORTH A READ IN ITS ENTIRETY. IT IS SO GOOD AND I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM IT.
