No. Never. Rhode Island detectives are professional interviewers trained to elicit admissions, inconsistencies, and placement at the scene. Anything you say - even innocent explanations - will be locked into a report and used to charge you more aggressively. Even telling detectives "I wasn't there" can backfire if they already have a piece of evidence suggesting otherwise. The correct response is always: "I want a lawyer, and I am not answering questions." Then stop talking. Call a Rhode Island burglary lawyer immediately. This is not a sign of guilt. It is the same advice every experienced defense lawyer in the state gives every client, every time.
