Yeah i know about the law and how it’s depicted in TV series, but in reality cops will definitely get false confessions out of you. See also this video on police interrogations which agrees with you we should shut the hell up in most situations. I don’t know much about US law, but at least around here in France cops will get your fingerprints and DNA by force and it’s a criminal offense to refuse it (before they do it by force) if (and only if) you’re condemned for something else… but refusing to give fingerprints/DNA is itself an excuse used by cops to keep you in detention when you have committed no crime, just like refusing to talk to them (unless you are a very fancy person in a suit) has great chances of taking you to pre-trial detention even if you committed no crime at all.
