The question of the day. And it's sort of ironic because I haven't even published the last question yet, and it had to do with should I talk to the police when I've been either under investigation or the police are knocking at your door? And this question I received yesterday up in the law firm, and it had to do more broadly, I suppose, with the general investigative stages of a case. And so often I get calls like this where somebody is under investigation, and it just seems probably not coincidentally, but for good reason, it seems that there's a lot of folks who deal with this while they're under investigation for an alleged sex offense, say, like an acquaintance sexual assault where two folks hooked up and maybe the other is claiming that it wasn't so consensual. So the scenario is basically this you're under investigation for a crime was just for purposes of this discussion say it's an alleged acquaintance rape, and the police want to talk to you and you know the case is What do we do? There's no right answer here that fits all. There's no cookie cutter response. We take every case individually and analyze it and assess it and decide the best course of action. And this is an important part of what I do. I think this is an important part of any criminal defense strategy is that you can't just follow the textbook all the time, because every situation is a little bit unique. Every situation has its own nuance, and every situation needs its own unique solution. So this is really how it feels. When you're under investigation, the natural reaction is "I got to do something." "I want to do something." But the problem is you may not know where the mines are. You don't know how big the minefield is. You don't know, even necessarily who the person on the other side who put the mines there, who that is. There's too many variables and unknown.

Wednesday with The Blitz and Heavy On The Domestic Court Questions

Should I talk to the police? When should I talk to the police?

Well, let me address this question by giving an example of a call that I had upstairs in the law firm just last week.

Details of former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones‘ recent arrest in Las Vegas hours after being inducted into the UFC Hall fo Fame. The arrest came in the early morning hours of Friday after Cesars Palace security alerted police of a possible domestic violence incident. “As Jones was being detained, he became irate and smashed his head into the front hood of the [Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department] patrol vehicle leaving a medium size dent as well as chipping of some of the paint on the vehicle,” police wrote in the report.

This marks episode number 200 for Lawyer Talk. When you get a chance, check out random episodes from 1 to 50, and 50 to 100, and 100 to 150. It's been a great 200 episode ride, and we're strapping down for another 200. Does 200 episodes make us experts or just experienced? And when can we say that about what we do for a living? Maybe the best approach is to always be learning, and be thinking "I know nothing" until you do?! Question from a podcast listener - submitted at www.lawyertalkpodcast.com - When I am pulled over, do I have to answer "where have you been?" or "where are you going?" Steve tackles this with his usual answer - "it depends." The government dictate for employers with 100+ employees. What does it mean, could it mean? But when it comes to vaccinations, do your homework. https://www.ohiolegaldefense.com/why-i-am-a-science-denier-and-that-is-exactly-what-you-want-from-your-criminal-defense-attorney/ (Check out a blog written earlier by Steve) - Why I am a “Science Denier” (and that is exactly what you want from your criminal defense attorney).
