But it generally isn't illegal to lie to get your own arse out of trouble. In fact everyone simply expects it, including your own attorney

You can tell the police lies, just never give them a false name or identification. LRS 14:108

OJ Simpson and Casey Anthony lied to the police and got off of their most serious charges against them by doing so.

Not backing the badge should be a crime

Maybe they should install red light cams to scan for the thin blue line stickers and fine those without.

Because you have a constitutional right to keep your mouth shut.

Lying to the feds is a big no-no.
Lying to state and locals is touchy. You can do it but along the way if they can make an obstruction of justice case you have a problem.
Basic lying to locals is OK, usually.
