Last Answer on October 29, 2014

My friend was messing with his friends who were at a party. His plan was to impersonate a cop by placing red/blue lights in his car and drive up to them. On their property, he turned the lights on. A state cop saw him and stopped him. Was it illegal?

Sounds like it. Impersonating a police officer is illegal in most (all?) states. Installation and use of certain revolving, blinking or flashing lists on a car is also illegal in most (all?) states.

Why don't people ever have lawyers while being interrogated on TV? I know TV isn't always accurate, but is there a reason why there's never an attorney? (Except for in court)

Asked by Jacob about 12 years ago

TV and the movies rarely portray law enforcement (or anything else for that matter) in a realistic manner. Even the so-called reality shows are heavily edited to present what the network wants to show you.

As for their reasoning...well it all revolves around $$$. The better the story, the more viewers they get. More viewers = more advertising dollars. Everything on TV is about making money. That is the reason why "news" programs are sensationalistic rather than objective.
