I love how this title says 'has a job to incriminate you' instead of cutting through the crap and saying 'police' even though every slide on this video is with reference to talking to police - i guess the fear of not sounding like one's enemies is real! But regardless, it is so beautiful to finally see some acknowledgement on here that LE has issues as it is, in this nation, no matter what the path to get here was. There seems to be some hope for unity after all!
I don't think it's that the police have "issues" per se, but that it is instead the very nature of the beast.
The job of the police is to confirm that you're the guy they're after in order to administer what the authorities consider to be justice. Your job is to not give them that confirmation, especially if you're innocent. If you're guilty, you obviously and already know this, but far too many people who are innocent have no clue.
We have, and have always had, an adversarial judicial system. Most people think it starts in the courtroom, but no, it starts the moment a police officer, investigator, detective, or other officer of the law wants to talk to you.

Because sometimes it’s not just police and the line doesn’t just stop there,
It can be other investigative agents as well
It can be lawyers who are not being paid by you
Even though they are not police, if they have something to gain by you being in trouble or arrested or incriminated: WATCH YOUR ASS
