    Just make sure to shutdown lock your phone before dealing with the cops, but also make sure to record your interaction with the cops cause they can and will lie. 🤷‍♂️

      Kind of tough to do both since the only way most people have of recording their interactions is with their phone.

      That’s always been the craziest thing to me about the US police system. In Finland the police is not legally allowed to lie to you about facts. They can lie about themselves and whatever, but not wholesale invent out of the thin air and gaslight people into believing that they did something.

        They can literally lie to you saying they found complete evidence that you committed a crime and that you’ll get jail time unless you confess in the interrogation room. And then when you confess, they’ll still give you jail time.

        Cops in the US have very little oversight.
