Lying to the police… or making an innocent mistake that seems like lying on purpose… or even telling the truth when the police misunderstands (or lies about) what you actually said… can get you in jail.
I assume that maybe 5% of people in prisons haven’t done anything wrong… they just were in the wrong place at the wrong time, didn’t have enough money to hire a good lawyer, or made some mistake. This advice is about reducing your chance to become one of them.
Looking suspicious is not a jailable offense.
