Most people who are faced with law enforcement agencies for the first time believe that the innocent person has nothing to hide, and therefore he or she does not need legal aid. However, criminal proceedings are a parallel reality, in which generally accepted logic does not apply. No matter what those or other events in the real world are, it matters only if they can be used against you.
