When you’re under investigation, your rights are firmly intact. But unlike an arrest, the government is under no obligation to tell you exactly what those rights are, or how you can use them to protect yourself. The same goes for any time you are asked to take a stand as a witness, or are the target in a grand jury investigation.
Human nature is to cooperate. By doing so, you run the risk of making an admission, providing evidence or incriminating yourself in some other way. This is a serious mistake, and the consequences can be severe.
