Lies. Truth. Some people live it, some people tell it, and some people mix both into one and don't do either very well. When it comes to the criminal justice system, it's been said that there are three sides to every story: His, hers, and the truth. No matter which category you fall into, there's one thing you should never do: if you're on the other side of the interrogation table, don't talk.
