Thanks Duckman,I'm very nearly finished Part 1 and think I will post in a separate thread so as not to cause confusion for people living outside the UK - it's probably best to do this in stages as I want to make it easy to digest.Probably the biggest fallacy I want to clear up is that adverse inferences can't be drawn from your silence if you claim you were doing so under advice from your Solicitor. It is still down to a court to decide whether it was reasonable to do so.The great Prof. Eric Shepherd himself who designed these interrogation techniques now in force across the UK and has admitted that on the balance of probabilities you're less likely to be charged by keeping quiet.I think it would be good though to give people a feel for the kind of non verbal cues they can give away and also about the processes used by the Police to obtain and collate evidence. People don't like to think about this sort of thing but of course this won't stop it from happening and of course we all need to be prepared for the possibility!V.Quote from: Duckman on May 15, 2012, 05:22 pmQuote from: vlad1m1r on May 01, 2012, 04:53 amI am actually in the process of writing a guide for people living in the UK for dealing with the Police. It would be good to have such a guide.One thing I would say is this, you should make it clear in the guide that often there is no way to get off scott free, so often what you are trying to achieve is damage limitation. In situations like this people sometimes wrongly believe that if they say a certain combination of words in a certain order then they will be home and dry and TBH that isnt really going to be the case if you find yourself being questioned by the police. The very fact they are questioning you means they probably know 80% of the facts already.. they dont usually round up random people in the hopes that they have done something wrong.So I think the guide should be more of a practical guide than a theoretical guide as I think, in theory, its still legal to shoot a Welshman with a bow and arrow after midnight in certain parts of England. In practice there is no combination of words you could say that would get you off.In theory its illegal to eat Christmas pudding in the UK (if I remember correctly Oliver Cromwell passed a law banning it and its never been repealed to this day). In practice no one is being arrested for possession of a seasonal desert!I really look forward to reading it if you get the time to put it all together.
