Former Police Officer: Don't Trust the Police — Defending Freedom

What do police officers really think during traffic stops, interrogations, and criminal investigations?

Former police officer and correctional officer Andrew Skoklo pulls back the curtain on what actually happens behind the badge. From how officers can tell when someone may be lying to the interrogation tactics police are legally allowed to use, Andrew shares firsthand experiences from his career in law enforcement.

He also explains why talking too much can be one of the biggest mistakes an innocent person makes, why detectives intentionally ask questions they already know the answers to, what officers are looking for during a traffic stop, and why he says, “Don’t trust the police.”

The conversation goes far beyond traffic stops and interrogations. Andrew discusses police cooperation with ICE, criminal investigations, mistakes made by law enforcement, prison gangs, drug trafficking, crime scenes, wrongful accusations, and some of the most disturbing situations he encountered working inside the criminal justice system.
