My question involves criminal law for the state of: Tn. I am not sure how long it takes to charge someone but last week i was interviewed by a detective but he did not arrest me after stating "if i thought you had done something horrible you'd be in handcuffs now" whether or not this was a lie i don't know. But as a person with mental disability if there a way i can revoke that statement and redo it with a lawyer present? I do not feel as if i were in the right mind to even be able to sign my rights over or talk to him. I was extremely confused and distraught. The worst part is the crime i took place in i have no recollection of how it happened. I had been drinking the night of the incident, i layed down to watch some tv and eat before going to bed. I remember being extremely disoriented and confused all of a sudden and then bam i was in my roomates bed. I don't believe i was drugged, nor was it any kind of anxiety. normally i have bad anxiety but i have been surprisingly happy as of late. Even was i was drinking i never got depressed or anything. In the case of me it is potentially rape because even a finger is considered penetration, she never said no, stop, or screamed. I just remember being in the bed and thinking it was my girlfriend. I would never have any intent to harm anyone, i don't even have a record. I stay to myself and raise my daughter. I am a stay at home dad, nothing has made me happier. I was mortified when i realized it was not my SO. the confusion lasted for hours, i think it had only been about 5 hours until i talked to the detective. I am only 23, i have 2 kids to raise and this will destroy my life. I have no idea if they are going to prosecute or what could happen. I feel as if the statement i made was damning. Even though it was the truth i feel as if i should of had someone speak on behalf of me. I am a pretty flat person as it goes in terms of looks some would call it a "resting bitch face." I am not sure how the court of even that detective can take it. I heard that these cases can go on for a good while before they even try to prosecute. I've lost my SO and she has taken my daughter, i have a son from another relationship. I have not been able to get any help for my mental issues and I am also wondering if my willingness to not just cope with but get medicated and so on will bode well for me. I have always been against medication and have worked through schizophrenic like tendencies, anxiety, depression and such all by myself. I really do not feel as if this was a mental issue but then again i think you get locked up even longer for being crazy. I had no malicious intent, there was no struggle or forcing but i just don't know what to do. All i know is i have a blank in my memory that i have never had before. I don't do drugs or anything, not even smoking pot.
