THIS. If the police don't arrest you it means they don't have sufficient grounds to do so. You have no obligation to assist them with their investigation, and you are not obliged to say anything whether under caution or not. Doing so will likely give them the grounds to arrest and charge you with something, even if it's fabricated. In the absence of legal counsel, ALWAYS, say nothing other than to confirm your identify if asked to do so and there after poltiely decliune to answer any questions and exercise your right not to have to say anything.. The Police are simply looking for a conviction and evidence suggests that they are not interested in who is reposnible, just that they get a result. The Police are not your friends and should be considered as hostile at all times. The End.

This is why you should NEVER EVER trust police

I was invited to a voluntary interview in the local station some years ago to answer charges of criminal damage or they would come to my house and arrest me. Stupidly I attended voluntarily and was lead to the cells, locked up from 10pm till 2am, then brought out to the interrogation room. It turned out a skinhead at the college I attended had kicked a hole in a plasterboard wall, and because I trained in karate had said I did it. I explained this to the pc who started writing my statement when a sergeant burst in, put a statement in front of me and ordered me to sign it. 'I was being a hard man and realise I was wrong, and I regret kicking the wall...'etc. I refused to sign, was dragged off the chair by my hair, kicked in the stomach and ordered to sign it. I refused so was put in a cell, bleeding from a ripped scalp. I asked for medical attention and legal representation and was told that as I wasn't signed in at the desk, and had attended voluntarily, no-one knew I was there so if I signed my confession laying on the floor I could go, or stay and suffer. I elected to stay and was released on bail at 6am when the shifts changed. Always tell someone where you are going, if you don't mind being arrested then there is a paper trail and you will be signed in, someone knows you are there. Luckily a family friend was a cousin to the Queen, so I went and told her my story. She rang her barrister in London and told him to be ready to accept a criminal case, then her cousin who was a Liberal MP in Kent, then the Chief Constable (she got straight through on his private number! amazing what being upper class and a magistrate can do) who she advised to make sure the officer had all his facts as she was picking up my legal costs and her barrister was waiting for instruction. The case was dropped. If it hadn't been for our family friend I would have a criminal record now. Never attend a police station alone, even to ask for directions.

I've heard a very similar story about someone else who was arrested for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, they were beaten and threatened and told they had to sign a confession. They were awarded compensation, sadly though the solicitor turned out to be a crook and defrauded them of it. This must have been in the 80's. I think times have changed and every interaction I've had with the police has been positive, but you can understand why generation after generation don't trust the police when they hear stories of how their parents and grand parents were treated.

Do not answer any more questions from police than what you are legally obliged to. A police officers “product” is convictions, he is judged on how many the officer gets. The officers questions are designed to find guilt and obtain those convictions, no matter how innocent or friendly they seem. Remember, they have had a lot of practice at it and you have not.

DO NOT SPEAK TO THE POLICE WITHOUT A SOLICITOR PRESENT. it is that simple.

Here's my story: I was accused of being Racist, lost my job and completely broke down mentally, sometime after I was asked to voluntarily go to a Police station, I barely managed to get a Solicitor. After the initial interview I was advised by the Solicitor to plead guilty to prevent Court action so I did, only after I had signed the papers did the Solicitor upon my Q tell me, THERE WERE NO WITNESSES TO THE 'APPARENT' CRIME! The Solicitor had a conversation with the Officer before hand and agreed, to prevent a public Outcry they'd get me to admit to a crime I HADN'T COMMITED as the 'supposed' 'Victim' was part of a BLM group! I really wasn't fully aware at that time as I was mentally ill so they used me to dispel any 'riotous' events. The 'supposed' incident took place in an area with X8 HD audio enabled cameras, funny, they NEVER showed any footage either. My advise, if you do volunteer, make sure you have a LEGIT Solicitor and don't sign anything until YOU are absolutely sure!!!😎

Sure, interviews conducted by the police in relation to "new cops" recruitment processes are said to make attendees feel a little nervous. And (of course) they need to be conducted in a relatively serious manner. But just why an invited police job applicant would also need to bring his or her lawyer along to an interview has me curious. Is this so that the recruiter can better assess the demeanour of the recruit in a confrontational situation by having the recruiting sergeant play "bad cop" whilst the lawyer plays "good cop"? And do the police foot the bill for the lawyer's time during such interviews?

1. NEVER attend a voluntary interview. If the police suspect that you have committed a crime and they have sufficient evidence that they can arrest you, they will arrest you. If they haven't got enough evidence, they will invite you to attend a voluntary interview in the hope that you will say something to incriminate yourself with. And then they will arrest you. 2. NEVER talk to the Police without a Solicitor present. If you do get "invited for an interview", get a Solicitor lined up. You will need one if the cops do choose arrest you. 3. You are NOT obliged to assist the Police in an investigation, especially if they are investigating YOU. 4. You are NOT obliged to say anything whether under caution or not*. So don't. If you do not say anything you can't incriminate yourself. (*S164/165 RTA being the exception when you must provide your licence and possibly state your DOB/Name & address & insurance)

The ‘voluntary’ interview process was forced upon the police, because people don’t like being arrested and kept in cells. There are often situations when an interview under caution is necessary, to further an investigation, but where, initially, there aren’t grounds for arrest. The general rules of arrest state that it must be proportionate, lawful, accountable and necessary. If you agree to attend voluntarily, arresting you wouldn’t be proportionate, lawful or necessary. Refusing a voluntary interview creates grounds for arrest, as failure to cooperate makes arrest proportionate and necessary. If you’re innocent, what’s the problem? Do you really need a solicitor to remind you to say ‘no comment’, if you don’t wish to answer? Do you know how much these solicitors drain from our taxes every year? If your IQ is higher than a hedgehog, a police interview shouldn’t pose any problems, particularly as they’re frequently conducted by cops and civilian investigators whose IQ is at goldfish level😂

WTF "Refusing a voluntary interview creates grounds for arrest, " No, refusing to volutarily talk to a police officer cannot be used as any sort of grounds for suspicion. you're and idiot @sage1d590 if you think that being innocent is any use once they have you, they'll pin something on you.

I agree, except to say that its not terrible advice -its utterly STUPID. Being arrested as an iccocent person in THIS case isnt a bad thing. Once arrested you have the right to legal counsel @@edennis8578

Bullshite! You do not have to cooperate with the police. Nor is there anywhere in law which states you DO. Therefore not cooperating is not grounds. In fact it's advice like yours which boils my piss. What you're saying is the police can say "we want to ask you something and if you don't answer, we will arrest you, even though you have the fundamental right not to answer any questions. The simple fact you say "if you're innocent then whats the problem" is a worry enough. The police don't care if you're innocent or not. They are there to secure evidence which will convict you in a court if charged. You do know how many people are wrongly convicted in this country right? I definitely smell pork with this one.

Politely decline and contact a lawyer.

Simply dont go.
