“I’m not saying a word until my lawyer gets here,” you repeat
for the third time. “Fine,” The detective replies. “But not talking to us just
makes you look more guilty.”
The detective leaves you alone in the
interrogation room, handcuffed to the table. After two hours of waiting, you
wonder what could be taking your lawyer so long to arrive. Suddenly, the door
opens and your science fair partner, Taniquia, rushes in.
Suddenly you become the interrogator. “What are you doing here? And what
the heck happened last night? Where is my bike? How did I get home? Why do the
police think I stole a car?”
“Shhhhhh!” Taniquia warns you as she pulls
out an official looking key. “There’s no time for questions. I have the key to
the handcuffs and a way to get you out of here, but you have to make your
decision in the next ten seconds. What will it be?”
If you decide to trust Taniquia
If you think it would be best to wait for your lawyer
