Who are they?
Are they highly knowledgeable about the nuances of defending the self defense case? Experienced?
How do they responsibly address the issue of disappearing witnesses and evidence, in those outdoor incidents in which it would apply?
What is your position on that point?
Again what is appropriate for an "I didn't do it" case won't help much in an "I did it but" case.
My position is based on what I have witnessed and have gleaned from brain picking some extremely competent lawyers on both sides of the bar.
For over 3 decades.
As well as picking the brains of many major case squad NYPD Detectives.
Some of whom are close friends.
Of course I will tell the police that I was involved in a shooting and that I am legally armed.
Naturally they will want more information on how many suspects and if there is any more immediate danger.
After that I will politely ask to be taken to a hospital for medical evaluation and inform them that I will not make any statements until I have my attorney present.
And that’s about it.
As to disappearing witnesses and evidence—-you need to be more specific.
Suppose I point to where the bad guys gun fell and, as it turns out, another “witness” picked it up and ran off without my knowledge?
Now what?
Does that make me a liar?
Suppose all of the witnesses turn out to be the dead guy’s fellow gang bangers?
My pointing them out will surely be helpful, eh?
Let the police do their investigation without my “assistance”
Let my legal team take care of the rest.
Talking to the police is like eating pistachio nuts—-kind of hard to stop after just 5.
An example:
Just IMHO.
All others are free to do as they see fit.
