Regardless of your innocence, a police interview needs to be handled very carefully. Investigators are trained to question you strategically, so we advise that you say nothing until you've spoken to a solicitor.
It can be very intimidating and it is vital that you have a specialist criminal defence solicitor sat right beside you. With over 25 years' experience, Martin Cray is your ideal representative.

Trouble is... the majority of solicitors are bloody useless. Duty solicitors are worse than useless. Unless you KNOW the solicitor personally, best course is simply to say that you will make a written statement, via your solicitor, in due course. Then shut up. Say NOTHING. Not "no comment" just keep quiet. The threat that your silence can be used against you is only valid in certain circumstances - basically where you wouldn't have a hope in hell of pleading not guilty anyway.

Don't talk to them ever, solicitor or no solicitor- COMMON LAW (Law of the land) - upheld by a police constable. No one is above common law, and those in breach of common law will be tried in a common law court before a jury of their peers. There must be a victim in common law and they do not need your name, as the victim and/or witnesses will point you out as being the perpetrator. Common law - 1 - You cannot hurt anyone 2 - You cannot steal anyone's property 3 - You cannot damage anyone's property 4 - You cannot defraud anyone 5 - You cannot commit breach of the peace towards anyone 6 - You cannot commit treason (or sedition), towards the crown. And that's common law ☝️, that's it and NOTHING ELSE. ACTS AND STATUTES OF PARLIAMENT (Commercial law, contract law, law of the sea, admiralty law) - upheld by a police officer. Only applies to certain groups (Road Traffic Act applies to drivers of vehicles etc) and needs your consent to enforce it, of which they will try to get using legalease ("Do you understand" - meaning do you 'under stand' ((stand under)) my authority). They need your name to issue fines and court dates, (as "Mr Hate crime" can't point you out in court - and no court usher ever shouts out "Occupier to court one"), You are the only one who can give or confirm your name, so NEVER give it. Your answer to every question should be - "I retain my common law right to remain silent" Your answer to every request should be - "I don't want to do anything you tell me to do, but I will do because I feel threatened by you" (They always "ask you" to do something rather than 'tell you' because then you've accepting their authority), and it's VERY important that people don't fall for the "Do you want to" etc etc, because this is where they will trap you. Q - "What's your name?" A - "I retain my common law right to remain silent" Q - "What's your address?" A - "I retain my common law right to remain silent" Q - "If you don't tell me you'll be arrested" A - "I retain my common law right to remain silent" Q - "Well I'm arresting you blah blah blah, 'do you understand'?" A - "No I do not stand under your authority" Q - "Ok well do you want to come this way" A - "I don't want to do anything you tell me to do, but I will do because I feel threatened by you" And before anyone points out that they can get your name from a driving license or passport etc, those are fraudulent documents created from a birth certificate that clearly states across the bottom - "A certificate is not evidence of identity". Let's not forget that the first thing a police constable says to you when he/she arrests you is - "You do not have to say anything", Because, believe it or not - YOU DON'T. You do NOT have to speak to a police constable. You do NOT have to speak to the desk sergeant at the police station. You do NOT have to have a police interview. You do NOT have to attend court. Exercise your God given inalienable common law rights, they're yours and cannot be taken away by anyone, especially by some police officer using his/her uniform to commit treason and fraud by acting as a government bailiff. Police constables swear an oath before God to serve the Monach and protect people and property. They DO NOT swear an oath to protect the government. They swear their oath raising their right hand, if they did the same in a court, they would receive two years for perjury.

Honestly it depends on the circumstances. Before one gets paranoid, the nature of the police interest in you needs to be established, which can be established by simply asking. Their answer should indicate if you should be concerned. If you are being actually interviewed, then of course you need a solicitor present. If you clearly are not the object in the case and are merely a witness giving a statement, then don't worry.

@@robertdore9592 well to a degree we did consent to being policed in the uk and the relationship was sound for many decades. The relationship has become more dysfunctional only in recent years especially in the more urban areas. This is why the police were a largely unarmed force in the uk. The relationship has deteriorated and we now find that much of the force is armed. It would be interesting to examine the exact mechanism of the consent and how it might be withdrawn. As to the surveillance, we agreed to that in order to enable us to be safer and as we know, those who relinquish freedoms in return for safety pretty soon have neither. We must ensure that we keep control of trial by jury as it represents our last constitutional avenue to dismantle an over grown and hostile state.

Many years ago i was called in for a police "interview regarding an RTA that I had, alledgedly, caused. I insisted that I wrote my statement but the officer told me that it was better that he wrote it because his handwriting was more ligible than mine. During the talk I learnt that a staionary bus that I was overtaking had pulled out and then moved back in hitting a bollard and that I had been the cause of that. My defence was that as I was overtaking a stationary vehicle it should have remained stationary until I had passed it, don't forget the rule of the left in the UK. I further added that I did not stop because I was unaware that there had been an accident. the statement mentioned nothing about my comment on the rule of the left, which I believe is part of the Road Traffic act and he had written that I was not awarethat I HAD CAUSED an accident. When they handed me the statement i wrote on the bottom that I refuse to sign it as I had been denied to write my own statement and that the written version was not the true statement that I had made. The Inspector told me that I had to sign it so I told him to bring in his Superintendant. Of course that was the end of that and two weeks later I received a letter from the Chief Superintendant's office of that district informing me that there were no charges against me. Oh and when i saw his writing it was as if a 12 year old schoolboy had written it.

In another case I refused to give a statement unless I was given a copy of the hand written statement at the time, that didn't go down well but again I got my wish as they wanted a statement. The statement was incorrectly typed up to the benefit of the accused and I wouldn't have known if I hadn't insisted on the hand written copy.

The process as described is certainly disquieting, not least because it's a minor "failing to stop/report an accident (damage only?) occurrence - no more. Police enquiries would then have been merely to enquire into it and to establish WHAT anyone who supposedly "failed to stop" had to say. Failing to stop involves having knowledge of an accident with the legal requirement to stop and exchange details on demand - or failing to report it to police thereafter according to circumstances. The evidence may indicate that the driver of a vehicle that had failed to stop should have known of the accident. After being given an initial report of such an accident, police on enquiry would have interviewed the suspected driver/owner about the allegation based on the report they had - and the circumstances - to allow him/her the opportunity to put their side of the story. There seems little point in an enquiring officer being partial in any respect since it involves two parties giving their sides of the story in a mundane every day traffic matter in which circumstances and actions can be explained before any court proceedings need commence. In this case, it seems that there was insufficient evidence to show that there was "knowledge" of an accident having occurred and No Further Action by police was decided.

I have been in a police interview regarding a false accusation of criminal damage. I engaged without a lawyer because I KNEW that they did not have any evidence. The interview lasted 3 hours with all the good cop, bad cop routine and "C'mon, you did it didn't you" line. Given the nature of my personality I found the whole thing farcically amusing because I knew that I would be walking. However, one momentary lapse or wrong word, especially if they catch you lying or being economical with the truth, then everything will change. I cannot thank Martin enough for producing this video and shining the arc light of truth on what is, in reality, is a very sinister process that does not have one shred of your interests at heart. You are just a potential 'nick' to enable them to tick a box and dispose of a reported crime. Do not forget: you are innocent until proven guilty, it is not your job to prove your innocence, it is the police's job to prove your guilt and you are under no obligation to help them do that. Do not be deceived into thinking that you are proving your innocence by answering question unaided. GET A LAWYER OR GET NICKED

Very true. Innocent or guilty, if you speak you are likely to convict yourself. Remember that. INNOCENT OR GUILTY - it makes no difference. The ONLY way to respond, in my opinion - unless you are clearly not involved and simply being interviewed as a witness to something - is to make no comment at all. It is not even necessary to say "no comment". Just keep your mouth shut.

It WASN'T necessary to say "no comment" or anything else, now it kinda is (see Salinas vs Texas case). Even being silent now can be used as an admission of guilt in court, unfortunately. The only good-ish way to get out of the situation is to pledge the 6th, which means asking for a lawyer present and saying nothing more besides that.

A solicitor once told me that many people imagine that the job of the police is to conduct an interview to find out the truth or probable truth of a situation and then decide whether or not to proceed with a prosecution. THIS IS NOT THE CASE, he said. What the police do is to find out if there is sufficient evidence to charge someone with an offence. Whether they do or don't believe in one's guilt or innocence is irrelevant to them. Always get a solicitor, because even being innocent and telling the truth can lead to you standing in the dock!

Over the years I replayed my "interview" hundreds of times. I hadn't committed a crime, but telling a federal agent a lie is a felony, EVEN if the truth was my own personal business, and divulging it would endanger me in the public setting I was in. What was my alternative? I could have put myself in danger by publicly exposing my bankroll, i.e., the cash on my person. Or, I could have remained silent, refusing to speak to the Federal Agents. That would have been the end of it and I would have been free to go on my way. But, I cooperated by answering. I didn't see the harm, the danger of talking when I was "innocent". My speech, my lie to protect a private fact, was not shown to be a hinderance to their inquires. THAT DIDN'T MATTER! Any lie is a felony, no matter how inconsequential. Bottom line: I spoke to them without knowing how dangerous it was and having nothing to gain. I was ignorant of the law and I was not advised by the Feds that I could remain silent but if I spoke I had to tell the truth, however inconvenient, or be committing a felony. That info would have kept me silent and safe. But my wellbeing was not their goal. Their goal was to arrest someone for something to further their careers. If that arrest was for an inconsequential technicality, a harmless little white lie, it was still grounds for a FEDERAL CASE. I cooperated when I could have kept my mouth shut, had my money stolen, and became a FELON. I had nothing to gain by talking, so why did I?

This is the right advise, and a similar situation for someone close to me. I advised him to have a solicitor before being interviewed. He took the advise but the police played it to him, like a tea party for him to give his variation on the complaint against him. It was just a smeer attempt from a neighbour, but for months later he was hounded by the police about accusations made by the same neighbour. So, i got him to make a complaint against the police for conduct and discrimination. He stopped getting hounded. There are these infringement laws that are very frivolously in the the justice system and it doesn’t really matter if it makes sense. I ask myself how many times people call the police about more serious crimes and the police either don’t do anything, or do little in respect to the initial complaint. Then they act on something that is trivia in the average persons way of thinking. in fact why do we need police?

My father was falsely accused of damaging a car, the police interviewed my father and charged him with causing criminal damage We were lucky to find an excellent solicitor, who proved my father to be innocent in court. The point i am trying to make is, if you are formaly interviewed by the police, always ask for the duty solicitor if you don't have one. My father was never the same after this, he had a heart condition, and passed away a few months after the court hearing. My opinion of the police is that all they want is you to confess to the alleged crime so they can obtain a result. This excellent video is great advice, don't say anything until you speak to a solicitor.

IN February, in the High Court in Cardiff, (Neale v DPP (2021)) It was confirmed that you have a right to remain silent and not answer any question and that the police cannot arrest or charge you with wilful obstruction for not answering questions. Never accept the duty Solicitor and keep you lip firmly shut. If you say nothing then they have no evidence. The only part or the caution that is important is your right to remain silent. Do not speak to them at all! Rice v. Connolly (1966) is an English legal precedent holding that there is no strict, general legal duty to assist a police officer prior to any possible arrest or caution, with even basic police enquiries nor to accompany the officer to a requested location.

No comment will often be your best answer unless you are 100% certain that your answering their question honestly and openly will not result in action being taken against you. Always remember they have years of trying and experience on their side. Your best option is to get someone with experience onto your side, and best way to do that is to request a solicitor to be present during any interviews. Good luck.

Have you tried that? The police officers I have dealt with would certainly make you pay for remarks like that, one way or another. These thugs are wearing the blue uniforms and that's all the edge they need to feel confident enough to use the upper hand as they see fit. The police force nowadays is populated by poorly educated, aggressive, even psychotic misfits who, by and large, are useless to the human race and have ended up in the police force because of that.

This is such wise advice and reminds me of a case, over a decade ago now, when I thought I had merely been asked to call at the local police station to discuss some previous and totally mundane motoring matter. When I got there, it turned out to be a formal interview and the caution was read. Up until this point, there was no offer of any legal assistance but, knowing the little that I did, at that moment I suddenly remember the name of one of the best defence lawyers I knew in the county and said I wanted him to be present. The detective was clearly extremely shocked by this, not to say slightly annoyed - but, of course, was forced to go away and arrange this. When it came to the actual interview - this was no discussion about a motoring offence but some completely trumped up notion of impersonating a police officer - a very serious matter indeed. Without the expert guidance I had from that criminal defence lawyer, I could’ve ended up in serious trouble. As it happens - he and I walked away from the police station and enjoyed a pint together in the pub opposite. Matter closed.

Net Tint Roller It's relevant now because the young new policeman sitting in on this 'interview' has this experience to draw upon. Sure there are guidelines, codes of practice and PACE, but that once young policeman is now coming up for retirement and remembers when all the red tape didn't get in the way of 'good old police tactics. And he's the one doing the manipulation today. There, I said it.

Something few people seem to be aware of is, regardless of whether or not they go on to charge you, (they didn't), the police will record any lie told about you and add it to an intelligence file. If you subsequently apply for a job that involves working with children or vulnerable adults, (nurse, football coach, police officer, traffic warden, bus conductor, piano teacher - you name it), this lie will be presented to your prospective employer on the the 'enhanced disclosure and barring certificate' you will be obliged to produce. Basically it means YOU WILL NOT GET A JOB until you have it removed. If you are already in one of these jobs you will be investigated by HR and have a good chance of being fired. Getting the slur removed can be a very expensive and difficult process. Please learn from my experience - until you have a solicitor KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. And DO NOT ACCEPT THE DUTY SOLICITOR (HE/SHE IS A POLICE STOOGE).

The Golden Rule is "Never Never Ever" say anything in a Police Interview or make any statement without first speaking to known competent Solicitor ? Never let the Police provide you with a Solicitor, or suggest the Duty solicitor at a police station? 🙄 Choose your own solicitor and get his professional advice before any interview begins 😉👍

Police officers tend to plead amnesia when fielding potentially incriminating questions, this approach minimises the risk of self incrimination and avoids the negative inference associated with a 'no comment' reply.

I had the same thing , voluntary interview , it did get interviewed and was cautioned . I went in denied emphatically what was said. No investigation came of it and case closed. The Police officer was a very experienced officer who said himself there was nothing to the case. However the whole things was scary. The Solicitor shook my hand and said it was a pleasure to represent someone who was innocent . It was clear to him and said to me he will tell the police this is clearly a set up from the start . ALWAYS have a solicitor who is experienced. You have given awesome advice

In my town 2 fellows went into a convenience store upon finding no clerk they left. One man returned after dropping off the other & looking around the store found the clerk bound w/duct tape & throat slashed. In the ensuing investigation the police decided the two "white trash" men were guilty of murder so prosecuted a circumstantial case. Inspite of a thumbprint belonging to neither man. A decade later the real perpetrator commits suicide & leaves a note confessing to the crime. If the police for many reasons believe you have committed a crime they will throw out evidence exonerating their suspect thus proving your innocence takes more money to provide for the defense then you will ever have. All to have a large record of convictions instead of maintaining the peace & insuring real justice for the guilty & innocent.

I’ve been arrested 5 times when I was young and a bit crazy and every time the only words that came out of my mouth was no reply. Out of the 5 arrests I was only charged once and got a not guilty because their witness never turned up to court. I’ve never used a solicitor in my police interviews and I’ve always answered the same no reply. I have an older cousin who had been in trouble with the police and he drummed it into me never answer any questions the cops ask you especially in interview and always say either no reply or no comment.
