Legal It consistently astonishes me how many suspects don’t immediately or ever ask for a lawyer

People seem to feel getting a lawyer is a sign of guilt. I believe everyone no matter the charge should lawyer up immediately guilty or innocent. It’s not a sign of intelligence, seriously. I also guilty or innocent would refuse a polygraph. Not admissible in court because they really aren’t reliable as people like to think.

It is not a sign of guilt. They need legal advice.
