A friend of mine was arrested on two counts of armed robbery, but he's innocent. An associate of his decided to talk to the people next door, so he called my friend over... As soon as he got there, the associate pulled a gun out on the people, He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The police told him that he could have gotten out Friday, but he's still there! What should he do?

Hello B:

He should hire a lawyer and not talk to the cops.

Agree, make no statements to the cops, get an attorney,

Since he was not guilty I am sure as soon as it was over he did not go with his friends but stayed with the victims and called the police and gave them all of the info.

I am sure if he did go home, he called the police at once to report his friend ?

I am sure when his friend pulled a gun he told his friend to stop and put the gun away ?

Or to BrittanyM2012 either, for that matter. Assuming BrittanyM2012 is not an attorney (or clergy, or the suspect's spouse), anything he says to her can be used against him.
