Screwed over by The ManWe once made a flash animation for a record company. They told us it was brilliant and 30 staff gave us a round of applause. They asked us to stick it out without their name on it. Then their legal department sent us a cease and desist for infringing their copyright. How have you been screwed over?

They always did that.What they've done is allowed silence to be viewed as suspect behaviour that shows guilt.

Not so much "allowed" it, as "pointed it out".I sat on a jury a couple of years ago, and out of four of them only one spoke to the police, and he was the one that went down.

Whatever the police say about the quality of your defence, under no circumstance do you ever, ever, EVER say anything in an interview.Ever. They're not looking to get to the bottom of it, so unless you've got damning evidence on or about you that pins you to the offence, shut the hell up and let your solicitor do the talking.
The absolute worst thing you can possibly do is have an interview where you're coming across as being selectively silent.

It depends on the context of the alleged crime under investigation. In some circumstances, a solicitor can advise a client to remain silent without it adversely affecting the case. For instance, if the client has mental issues and will suffer during an interview.
As I understand it, common advice these days is to give a no comment interview and hand in a written statement instead to avoid adverse inferences being drawn.
