1) People should be told why they are being arrested / detained. That is a basic right all people have. You&
#39;d think if you are arresting someone after a year long investigation you would at least be able to tell them why. (1/3)

Lawyers shouldn&
#39;t be arrested just because they have "met" with or "talked to" criminals/ those accused of crimes. Are lawyers expected to do background checks before they meet clients? Of course a lawyer can&
#39;t aide & abate a crime or cover it up, that&
#39;s against the law. But(2/3)
But if that&
#39;s what he is being accused of then why not tell him that? The State has no right to remain silent about what crimes it is accusing a citizen of. That is not the kind of society you&
#39;d want to live in. Indefinite detention without being accused of a crime is wrong (3/3)
