But if you're arrested and are ignorant of your right to remain silent, and
the cops fail to make you aware of that right, you walk.

Tangential correction...

You probably will not walk, but whatever you say without benefit of council
will probably not be admissible at your trial.

Even if you do walk, you will be a much poorer individual. A competent attorney will
charge a contingency fee of several thousand just to handle a felony charge. If it
gets before a jury, you'll be into the tens of thousands.
