There’s two things you can do. The first would be to do what they tell you to do. In other words, follow instructions. The second thing I would advise ANYONE to do is not say a word until you talk to a lawyer.
What you say can and will be held against you! Indicted by the feds and sentenced to 51 months for a 1st time non violent drug offense. I was never given a bail. So I was locked up from my initial arrested until the day I was released. I did over 11 months in county jail awaiting trial.
The story I have about remaining silent and not answering questions untill your attorney is present. I was arrested at my place of business (ironically on my day off). I was transported to the county jail and informed I would not have a bail. I was delivered to an interrogation room. I immediately asked for an attorney upon being notified of not having a bail. I again asked for an attorney when we reached the “interview room“. I asked over 25 to 30 times for my lawyer, attorney, counsel, representation, you get the idea. They would ask and reask start over rephrase a question. I would request a lawyer. I guess after 10 minutes of this ( seemed much longer) they stopped out of frustration and agreed to summon my attorney. 4 of the 5 DEA agents left the room leaving only the agent in charge. I know this because he reintroduced himself. I apologised for being standoffish and refusing to answer a single question. I then was asked if I would like to cooperate. To which I said the magic words “Sir I don’t want to be disrespectful agent but, I don’t think you understand me. “I would rather kill myself than answer even one question without a lawyer”. They immediately brought in a psychologist and I spent the next 72 hours in a turtle like suit placed in solitary, no bed, no clothes. special diet sack lunch for every meal on suicide watch!
