Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.

I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.

Do not report crimes here. Nothing here should be considered legal advice. All opinions are my own.

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 11 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.
