I would say it's situation dependent at best. Every day you see cops pretending to be someone else, to bust someone. I'd say lying is almost SOP, if the job requires it.

They can, and do. Ever seen on TV or heard the rumor that if asked a cop has to admit to being a cop? Pure bullshit. Do you know how many dead cops there would be if they couldn't lie about that? and that's just one example.

I was a cop and yes we can lie about anything...that is why you need a lawyer. I can tell you your buddy just told me you did it and tell him you did the same if I want to..UH..OH wait...I did that

you think the cop knows how fast you were going when he pulls you over after he spotted you going the other way across a 20' unpaved median?

You are right. The higher the angle betweeen the RADAR gun and target, the lower the speed will read on the RADAR. That angle works to YOUR advantage. A police Officer cannot lie when making an official report, issuing a summons, etc. A LEO can lie as an investigative tool. |

You're potentially going to get someone in trouble. Lying to any police officer can potentially get you arrested. It depends on what you are lying about. Lie about your identity....go to jail Lie about how many beers you drank or where you are going/coming from...no jail Etc Etc....Different States have different laws. YMMV |

Cops cannot lie in a report or in court. Only defense lawyers and defense witnesses are allowed to lie in court.
Cops can lie during an interview to trick you into confessing to something you did. Such as telling the suspect he was caught on survelliance tapes even when there are none. |

It depends.. They can't lie like "I have probable cause to search the vehicle, so can I get permission?" but they can lie when interrogating someone "your friend just said you did it, and he's singing like a canary, what do you have to say?"
It depends on the situation, but generally there is nothing illegal about lying. |

That all seems to fit. But say in a sting or other undercover situation, can they lie about the law? As in, "Oh, Hell no, that's not illegal -- here, try it out" |

Since you are in Texas, you are wrong. You cannot lie to the police if it is during a criminal investigation. You do not have to talk to them but if you do, you cannot legally give false information. |

uhhhhh rrrright i guess sooo???? yes tech. is advanced enough to tell the officer how fast and how many feet away you were when you were caught speeding and with a laser it's just one cars speed, not the fastest one so there's no "well the other guy was going faster than i was" type of shit. if i stop you, i am certain of the speed and if they question my integrity then it all goes down hill for them from that point on on. |

Also, no conversation with LE is casual, unless perhaps you know the cop well. They are always interrogating.
My stepmother was an interrogator for the Wisconsin Department of Health. Her job, 20 years ago, was to track backwards from one person with an STD all the way as far as she could, and get those people in for testing. She left when she started having to tell people that they were HIV Positive. The point of the story is, growing up, I could NOT get away with things. She notices the little cues, and she pushes until she gets the answers she is looking for. So I have a little bit of experience in the matter.

No talk, no problem. Who knows, maybe an innocent person has gone to jail for talking when they should have STFU. It is an option. |

Is Ted Kennedy gun shy? Can he swim? Does he drink? Did his mother own a black dress?
Don't lie to cops, just don't volunteer information. "I'm not trying to be a wise-guy, officer, but I'd like to consult a lawyer before answering questions." |
