Extended data:

If it is a confession, you can entrust a lawyer and record the information. Because in accordance with the provisions of Article 41 of the Procedures for Handling Criminal Cases by Public Security Organs, when the public security organs interrogate a criminal suspect for the first time or take compulsory measures against the criminal suspect, they should inform the criminal suspect that they have the right to entrust a lawyer as a defender.

And inform him that if he has not entrusted a defense lawyer due to financial difficulties or reasons, he may apply for legal aid from a legal aid institution. If a criminal suspect in the same case entrusts the same defense lawyer, or if two or more criminal suspects who are not involved in the case but commit a crime entrust the same defense lawyer, the public security organ shall require them to change their defense lawyers.
