Yea, frick the Constitution. No reason for it to apply to all citizens.

This is literally the 1st case I can remember where I think the cops may be in the wrong.
Wow.
Well there is the case where the JPSO shot and killed my cousin who was climbing out from under someone's house in Metairie. He was a plumber with a tool in his hand.

But who do you believe- the marshals who have lied about: -Being shot at -Dodging a car backing up at them -Serving nonexistent warrants -having jurisdiction in the area
Wait is this true? Verified?

Don't remember. I was in grade school at the time. Long time ago. His last name was Herkes.

Probably 30 years ago. Same shite happens all the time. Trigger happy cops led to that and this incident, IMHO.
When you cary a gun, you have a lot of responsibility.

I was going to, but you edited too quick.
I mean I get the reason behind the fifth, you do not have to implicate yourself in a crime, but as you know once someone locks up and starts pleading the fifth, to the eyes of the law they are usually guilty.
The police officers, if totally clear, should have a report and a story, now they are taking the fifth and refuse to answer, so it is pretty damning to me.

Generally speaking (if nothing else) it looks really bad to have government agents essentially admitting that their testimony could incriminate themselves.

I don't disagree. But I don't see it any more or less bad than any other person using it.

I agree.

The LSP essentially said:
1)No evidence that the car backed up toward officers.
2)There are no outstanding warrants for Mr Few.
3)No weapon was found at the scene.
Only thing to be verified was if the marshals even had jurisdiction in that ward. Survey is leaning toward no, though LSP hasn't verified that.

You would think so, but remember what and who you are dealing with. I am still leaning towards these guys never facing a petit jury.

Also seems that victim had personal conflict with one of the Marshals.

So Joe Q Public can lawyer up and not give a statement and it cant be held against him but a citizen employed in law enforcement cant

Not when they make the claim of "performance of duties" in said shooting.
They already get a 48 hour grace period without being questioned by anyone.
They won't even talk to make an official report of the incident.

For a person who has sworn to uphold the law to admit his testimony will incriminate himself doesn't look very good.
Are you suggesting you shouldn't hold it against him?
Eta- did you miss the part about them refusing to interview LSP?

Its everyones right under Miranda to not give a statement

Being convicted in the minds of the public and media is small potatoes to saying something that sends you to prison for life
