I was accused of a crime once, and there was no evidence other than the original complaint. I was invited down to the police station and the inspector tried to pressure me into confessing. Finally, he told me that if I take a lie detector test and passed it, he would close the case as unsolved. So, I took the lie detector test.
Reader, never agree to a lie detector test. They are actually tools to get people to confess.
ANYway, I talked to a lawyer after the polygraph. He told me that when the inspector calls, I should tell him that they would need to arrest me to talk to me. So, that’s what I told him.
I never heard from him again. Never heard anything about the case since then. It was in 1982. Posey is right not to go in voluntarily. She is right to tell them they have to go get her if they want to talk to her. I understad that English Law is not the same as Minnesota law, but both systems are based on the same Common Law concepts.
If they have anything, which they don’t, they will arrest her.
I’m guessing they don’t hire police officers for their writing skills.
Or police staff who send out the “we want to arrest you for wrongthink” letters.
Voluntary, but if you don’t agree we can arrest you.
This is not voluntary.

Dr. Moody is right, too.
BACK TO WORK, MIKE!
Scurry scurry.
All this talk about the police being underfunded, but here they are, conducting interviews in manors.
