What to Do If You're Arrested
“They hope you don’t know your rights. That’s where they messed up.”
🚨 STAY SILENT. Don’t explain. Don’t argue. Don’t talk. Say:
"I am invoking my right to remain silent. I want a lawyer."
"I am invoking my right to remain silent. I want a lawyer."
📵 Don't talk on the jail phone about your case. It’s recorded. Don’t say anything about what happened — not even to friends or family.
🧠 Do not waive your rights. Cops will act friendly, but anything you say will be used against you. Stay calm, but firm.
📜 Ask Sage if you need help filing a Motion for Bail, Dismissal, or to Challenge Probable Cause.
If you were wrongly arrested or your rights were violated, document everything you remember: officer names, badge numbers, who said what, and the timeline. Sage can help you draft a complaint or demand evidence (like body cam footage).
