About this listen

Law professor James J. Duane became a viral sensation thanks to a 2008 lecture outlining the reasons why you should never agree to answer questions from the police - especially if you are innocent and wish to stay out of trouble with the law. In this timely, relevant, and pragmatic new book, he expands on that presentation, offering a vigorous defense of every citizen's constitutionally protected right to avoid self-incrimination. Getting a lawyer is not only the best policy, Professor Duane argues, it's also the advice law-enforcement professionals give their own kids.

Using actual case histories of innocent men and women exonerated after decades in prison because of information they voluntarily gave to police, Professor Duane demonstrates the critical importance of a constitutional right not well or widely understood by the average American. Reflecting the most recent attitudes of the Supreme Court, Professor Duane argues that it is now even easier for police to use your own words against you. This lively and informative guide explains what everyone needs to know to protect themselves and those they love.

This book is one of the most important legal text for non-legal people. I have given it to my children to read, though I hope that they never need to use the knowledge.

An absolute must read

This should be compulsory reading in schools. no point having rights if you don't know how to use them. Even though I'm not an American the facts still hold true

Hi, I couldn’t wait to get my hands this audiobook once I had really got my head around Professor James Duanne’s speech called “DON’T TALK TO THE POLICE” and this audiobook is just that even bit better because it’s recorded in his own voice (I just had to speed it up to 1.5x speed though to keep his natural pace.
Anyway what a great book, so true, AMAZING insight and information!!

I bought half a dozen so far as gifts for friends!!

Thankyou Professor,
Your an inspiration and I aspire to have the knowledge, wisdom and success (not fame) as you do.
I hope you make it on the SupremeCourt Bench.

Thankyou,,
