Has anyone else noticed the varying degrees to which some suspects on TV dramas decide they need to call their lawyer? I’m sure there’s a logical explanation and\/or it really doesn’t matter when<\/em> you call your lawyer, but it just struck me as odd.

SUSPECT:<\/strong> “Um, I’m going to need my lawyer, aren’t I?”<\/p>\n
