My wife watches true crime bullshit all the time. It's stunning how every one of the defendants incriminate themselves. They think they're smarter than the cops and have a solid story.
Y'all, cops are expert level at getting you to talk. There is no option but to stone face them out. "I don't answer questions and I want a lawyer." Never say any other words besides these. (OK, "Am I being detained?" is fair game.)
Just STFU, there is no world in which you're going to outwit people whose very job is interrogation.
Having said all that, these cops should have the hammer dropped on them. Fired, no LEO future anywhere, sued into bankruptcy and thrown in jail. And that might satisfy me.
