It's time to lawyer up. You can be arrested either before, during or after the interview. Under no circumstances should you talk to the police detective or any other law enforcement agency without an attorney present.

It's a trap. You have the right to remain silent. Only idiots talk to investigators/cops. Remember, no matter what you say it will be twisted around and used against you later.

Don't talk to cops. They are not your friend. Their job is to gather evidence to be used against you. You will be arrested if you go in. If you don't you are exercising your constitutional right against self-incrimination. And your common sense right not to assist the state in putting you in prison.
