As a former local union leader I attended a number of workshops on legal rights over the years. Repeatedly we were warned to be very, very careful about what we said to the police if we were ever called in - especially if we were involved in a case that involved us personally. The frequent point made was that the police investigators would be very friendly - act like your friends - say some shit like, "We know how this probably went down and we're sure you'll be free in a few hours, but let me just get your side of this." And don't sign any accounts of your conversations with police without legal representation. Word - ask for a lawyer and shut the fuck up if you're being accused of something.
