I mean he's trying to bully a confession and if it's before even the "we can get a warrant stage" of the process then it's way before bullying is an effective tactics.

The chick volunteered to go in to the office for a chat she's already making this detectives job easy. She could just have said, no. Which she will in the future.

Every time a cop pulls this dumbassery not only does it mean taxpayers fit the bill but it also means that it makes cops jobs much harder as people will (for good reason) refuse to talk with the cops.

What fucking college age girl is going to willingly surrender her phone? I mean please. If you've got a warrant take it, but they don't. She's already volunteering with the cops. You could probably just ask her for a transcript of the text messages and she'd give it.

If it's arson you'd think they'd find some evidence on site that would get them the warrant. I mean it's not like meth is that hard to hide eh?

This. Well said.
The meth angle was just my speculation. But so much of what we hear about in the news is involved with drug sale/cooking/transport/rivalry I figure it factors into things in policing's mind often.
You're right on all those points. I think we agree.

Especially in the black community, cops just incentivized the "snitches get stitches" mentality that used to be the norm. And this is the daughter of a cop, so she's second generation trying to swim against the stream. That might have just ended.
