Q: Was contacted by law inforcement about an incident at his massage business what should he do ?
He's not guilty of anything although he has in writing where a woman had gone mental staying she was uncomfortable around a year ago and had been opologetic not really even remembering the situation when later confronted around four months ago and didn't think much of it until this .......that's all he can think of that it would be from the accusation from a voicemail left by a detective of any potential "incident" at his business and that's all the back info he knows and he's scared and has never been in trouble with the law so how should he handle something like this
A: First, be mindful that there are a lot of telephone scams going around claiming to be from law enforcement, and ultimately demanding money or personal information. If the person left a name and a phone number, contact the police department to see if it's legit. If it is, tell them you'll have your attorney reach out to them. Then contact a local attorney as soon as you can. DO NOT talk with a detective without an attorney.
