1.3 The legal caution
As mentioned earlier, a key difference between interviewing Neale as a suspect and as a witness is that for the suspect interview, Neale needs to be given the legal caution. This is because his answers must be capable of being admissible evidence. The legal caution is: ‘You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.’
