I never said that. But if you’re innocent and can prove it during the initial questioning. Say you have phone location data via an app, like I do, that logs where you were at certain times. You should absolutely show that to the police and prove right then that it’s highly unlikely you were where they said you were at a particular time.
And the cost is not less because someone is innocent. If an innocent person stays silent, gets arrested because they didn’t refute any of the evidence that LE has, then they will find themselves requiring a lawyer and a much longer process to exonerate themselves.
So if you can keep a level head, know your rights, and have the ability one way or another to seriously discredit whatever they have on you, then you should speak up and stop them right then and there. And at the same time prevent the need for any legal fees to even accrue.
If LE is coming just to question you, they don’t have much on you. If they did, they would just arrest you.
Good to know, thanks man.
It’s unique and likely not frequent but if you are stable in the mind and know your rights you will be fine if you talk to LE.

I'm stable but need to learn more about the law.
Being normal/compliant has definitely helped me a few times.
