Description
When people panic, they talk. They explain inconsistencies, justify decisions, and try to "clear things up." That usually backfires. In one real case, a defendant already under indictment took a call from a former colleague—unaware that the caller was cooperating with the government.
The cooperator was coached to call, ask questions, and even lie if needed. The defendant opened up. Weeks later, prosecutors filed a superseding indictment. That single call made his situation worse.
Assume everyone has an agenda. Silence protects you.
