re: Why are detectives and police allowed to lie to suspects but flipped is illegal?

I lied to my neighbors kids once to get the sunglasses they stole back.

Knock, knock.

You guys see anyone near my car?

No.

Thanks. That's OK. I have it recorded and will just give the tape to the police when they get here.



I go back inside. Strangely enough, I find my sunglasses on my front porch. I didn't have any video of the event. I am such a liar. I feel awful
