You do, however, have access to the [[Interrogation|Interrogation Room]], which has a Universal Recorder present, as well as all the gloomy lighting that you would want for a proper interrogation.

** If you're the paranoid type, be cautious of a lawyer and their client who try to get you alone in the interrogation room; it's possible they're plotting to kill you and break out.

Other situations may apply, but the main thing to keep in mind is that every minute spent in Interrogation is one where everyone present isn't experiencing or participating in the rest of the game. The roleplay involved can be fun for everyone involved, but only if everyone agrees to it. A good rule of thumb is that RP, in all its forms, is a consensual, agreed decision. '''Don't force people into interrogation beyond their sentence length if there's not sufficient justification to hold them longer.''' | |||
Good things to note are alibis, actions, who they were with, what they were thinking, what they plan to do, etc. Any information you can get on them that's either head-scratching or glaringly contradictory with another's testimony can be a book-shutting detail. | |||
There's a camera console outside Interrogation which only looks into the room. It's a good way to spy in to make sure nothing funny is happening, and fellow officers can do this for you, too. | There's a camera console outside Interrogation which only looks into the room.
