Buffalo Bills talk 2018 - Off Season

[Husko]

There's only 1 time you should ever talk to police: When you're reporting a crime or providing additional information for a crime you reported.

And even then I'd be hesitant. The number of times I've had clients call 911, make a report, etc. only to be the one to get arrested themselves.... It all comes down to how much you trust law enforcement I guess :shrug:

The idea that nobody with a lawyer cooperates with an investigation is actually hilarious.

hell, don't even do it then

snitches, stitches, etc

 

[Dirty Dog]

Yea if you have an innocent client, many lawyers would recommend cooperating depending on the situation. Saying otherwise sounds TV-ish. I'm sure its just difference in strategy.

shady has nothing to gain here.the assertion is that he set up some goons, and that's pretty much an unfalsifiable claim

 

[Dirty Dog]

I mean prolonging an investigation where you are a suspect, and you know you are innocent, could absolutely be the wrong choice.

it doesn't matter if you're innocent or not

 

[stokes84]

it doesn't matter if you're innocent or not

Perspective matters. There was a crime that took place in his home. Normally, you'd want to be the one finding and prosecuting the perpetrator. Honestly, he should be on the offensive.

 

[Dirty Dog]

If you have a famous client, where public perception matters, and going on the presumption they are 100% innocent....not cooperating with police where your ex was targeted and beaten in your home sounds like the no-win decision.

 

[Baccus]

You say "crime that took place in his home" while seeming to ignore that it was released to the public with a horrifying assault image and text that basically accused him of committing the assault, beating his child, beating animals and taking PED's. It's not like a robbery at his house was reported and somebody broke a window but Shady is all lawyered up over it....

There’s literally no positive to it. None. Shadys already guilty in the court of public opinion- that won’t be swayed until a final verdict is given, and not likely even then.

Nobody smart does.

They didn’t damage the house, did they? Why would he care what happened to her? Doesn’t sound like they have a great relationship. I’ve never got to the point where I don’t care if an ex is alive or dead, but some people get ther if it gets toxic enough.

You’re reaching for a reason to judge him. He has nothing to gain from talking right now. He made his statement that the allegations are baseless. What else can he say?

 

[Dirty Dog]

He can clear himeself as a person of interest. What are you all talking about he has nothing to gain. You can argue the risks outweigh that, but he clearly has something to gain.

Imagine you are a suspect. Actually imagine how shitty that would be. Now imagine you are no longer a suspect. You just gained something.

lmao no it doesn't

 

[Dirty Dog]

I like how cooperating with police while innocent is an lmao-worthy take.

 

[enthusiast]

the people who say public perception matters are the public who desperately want their perception to matter

 

[enthusiast]

i literally can't imagine being naive enough about our criminal justice system to have that take

 

[Dirty Dog]

You are right, public perception to a celebrity isn’t valued!

 

[Dirty Dog]

i literally can't imagine being naive enough about our criminal justice system to have that take

And I can’t imagine being so ideological you forget practicality. Of course it matters to some

 

[enthusiast]

innocent people don't exist, just people with varying amounts of dirt on them. And suggesting that these people participate in a process geared toward finding someone to charge, rather than finding reasons to clear them, is ludicrous

 

[enthusiast]

it's not practical to be ignorant of the criminal justice system

 

[enthusiast]

it's amazing that lawyers even need to get a degree with how simple these matters are

 

[Husko]

It really is.

That said he can cooperate without sitting down for an interrogation. He could, for example, give them video of the incident. R will likely be subpoenaed eventually.

 

[enthusiast]

basically, don't do anything you aren't compelled to do, and see if you can get around that stuff anyway

if you care about how the media paints you just donate to charity after

 

[enthusiast]

apologies for getting salty about this but i've engaged with too many people f***ed over by the system for trying to help
