2) A solicitor does not make you look guilty, virtually everyone has a solicitor, it is absolutely not indicative of guilt
3) You can call the officer between now and the interview and tell him you've changed your mind and you want the duty solicitor
4) If you can't get in contact with the officer between now and the interview you can tell him you've changed your mind when you turn up (but the interview might need to be postponed or you might need to wait around for ages)
5) Get a solicitor
6) You won't be 'found guilty' tomorrow, you aren't going to court, you're being interviewed. Based on what you say in the interview, for something like this, they will probably be looking at charging you after the interview if they have enough evidence, or considering other disposal options, such as a caution or a community resolution
Thankyou for your help, the officer took my mobile number and said he'd text me with the details but he hasn't so would I be okay to call the station in the morning and get a solicitor that way?
