How in the world do people not know to never talk to the police in this day and age? The only words you know when you step into that room should be "lawyer" and "fifth amendment".
Dangerously wrong.
You have to explicitly say: "I want a lawyer". In those exact words.
If you say, "I want a lawyer, dawg." The police will literally claim you didn't invoke your right to counsel because Lawyer-Dogs aren't a thing, and therefore it's not possible for anyone to understand what you said.
Actually they rejected his appeal because saying "maybe I should talk to a lawyer" isn't invoking your right to a lawyer so when he said "why don't you just give me a lawyer dog" it was the "why don't you just" that was the reason they denied his appeal and quoting "lawyer dog" was just them mocking the defendant.
But, yeah, don't try to be cute when asking for your lawyer. Ask for a lawyer and just keep asking if they don't stop.
