No, if you don’t tell the full truth you could potentially be fined for lying to authority and even if you HAD to lie to get the truth you shouldn’t because of they catch you it wouldn’t be worth it if you could’ve just told the truth in the beginning.

Answer:

The police can legally lie to you to get during an interrogation and young people are especially vulnerable to their tactics. In my opinion, I don't think it's appropriate for them to lie to you because when people are brought in for questioning by the police, they're expected to tell the truth. Most people would assume that the police must also be truthful during interrogations, but the reality is that the police can lie to you during an interrogation. I just don't think it's fair.
