Limited Series: Know Your Rights- What Happens After An Arrest

Episode notes

An arrest does not mean your rights disappear. But the rules do change.

In this episode, we break down what police can legally do once you're in custody, what conversations are recorded, when to remain silent, and what happens before your first court appearance. Understanding this stage can make all the difference.
