I have a silly idea. Say the truth, admit you made a lapse of judgment, offer to repair your victims. Silly I know, but maybe you d be surprised this would go a long way in getting out of this shit situation eventually instead of turning everyone into predatory "we ll crush him for eternity" mode ?

It's good that you know it's a silly idea, not sure why you felt the need to share it. Essentially pleading guilty without a lawyer is one of the worse things you could possibly do. It's hard to even know what you are admitting to!

I think it’s useful to know how to handle yourself when being interrogated and also innocent. I don’t think the op was asking how if they are guilty.
