"You Have the Right to Remain Innocent" (James Duane)
The Cato Institute
Law professor James Duane explains why you should not talk to the police even if you are innocent, drawing on case histories of wrongful convictions. It is a short version of the argument in his book on the right to remain silent.
HN commenters send it to anyone who thinks innocent people have nothing to fear from answering police questions.
