Willie just step away from the keyboard.
I will not. If I'm accused of something I had nothing to do with, I'm ignoring advice of council and taking the stand. (Yes, I'm aware Jared hasn't been charged with anything.)
You're actively ruining a once proud alias.
I guess I'm in the minority. If I'm under public investigation for a horrible crime I 100% had nothing to do with, I tell everyone that I had nothing to do with it. Apparently most here would act differently. People are mistaking someone completely innocent making a proclamation of their innocence with someone who may have some culpability and is silent because they're devising a legal and PR strategy to unveil at a later time.
I would too. If I knew I was innocent no way do I sit back in silence.
True story....
As I have posted before...at one time I was in law enforcement.
I went to a Bachelor party one night and two guys took a girl into the bedroom. Fine whatever. Later I had to pee, I go to the bathroom and hear her screaming no, stop, and help. I knock on the door and all I hear is help me, and some sounds that sound like a slap. I knock again, hear muffled sounds. I go cop mode and kick the door in.
This poor girl was getting raped by two guys. I pick her up and carry her upstairs and immediately call 911. I report a rape and the dispatcher asks how I know. I tell the above story and add that I am a police officer and due to the sounds and how the girl is now reacting (Sobbing, shaking, freaking out) that something bad has happened. She is completely naked. I give her clothes out of my back pack.(That I changed out of before golfing)
Fast forward, Police show up...I am detained (in cuffs) back of a police car. Give my statement. My clothes are taken as evidence. Police pick me up 3 days later, and take me to the police station to get additional info.
I know the game, I am freaking the #### out, I told them I wasn't involved, did the right thing and didn't understand why I was being treated like this. I never asked for an attorney(because I was innocent) I advised them to arrest me or let me go.
Never talk to cops.
