11pm Wednesday night, knock knock knock! Two Feds wanted to come inside, I tell them it's best if we chat on the porch.
They pull out their laptop and start playing recordings of my phone conversations.
I started answering questions, telling them things I shouldn't have about myself because I was scared shitless.
Turns out, I should have said, I apologize for not being able to comply with you at this point in time, I'd like to call my lawyer before I answer any of your questions.
Would have saved me 5 years.
Don't listen to any these douches who are telling you to ignore your rights. Be polite and honest, to an extent. If they ask if you've been cooking meth then obviously say no, and then don't be afraid to throw some questions back their way!
If they do come back... good luck and keep us posted.
Oh, and GET A DAMN LAWYER! At least hire a public defender. You won't regret it. Oh, and make sure it's a federal one.
