We are beating around the subject here but what is trying to be established in almost all circumstances above is ... possession.Signing implies possession'Opening' (thus the device to signal when opened) implies possessionGetting him to admit it is his... case closed.The important aspect in all this is to deny possession both physically and verbally.Do not sign...Do not open immediately... (remove to another location, then open)Do not TALK!!You have ZERO to gain by speaking to anyone other than a lawyer... the judge only cares about you being cooperative at sentencing... the point is NOT to get to this stage.TJ
