I do not give you consent to you searching me or my things.

I want a lawyer
#3
I want to remain silent

DO NOT TALK TO THE POLICE.
PERIOD.
Police, detectives, and school resource officers will tell you that talking to them will "help your case," "help you," "get you home faster," and more. But the truth is it will not. Just don't talk to them. You will have the opportunity to talk with someone, but it should be your attorney.
No matter what your age, you have the RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT!
Use it.
Got a cell phone?
Always use a password.
Turn off message preview.
Turn off face ID.
NOTHING IS EVER GONE OR DELETED. EVER.
You have the right to film the police.
