I like cops. I have several in the family in fact, but the bottom line is, don't allow the police to question you until you have a lawyer present. Despite what they may tell you, once the police start asking you questions, they are not there to help you, they are there to make a case against you. By all means don't lie about anything, just keep your mouth shut until you have representation.
Of course, there is a difference between being a witness and telling the police what you know, and being a suspect and talking too much. I think most here will understand the difference.
