      I also think it’s very bizarre their constant complaining that the suspect isn’t “cooperating.”

      What is it that they expect him to do? I have a guess, of course. The way it usually works (after the suspect initially agrees to talk with them without a lawyer, creating all kinds of problems for themselves), is that they build the case, and the lawyer who’s now in touch with the client finally has a chance to tell them to shut the fuck up going forward. My guess is that they really want him to “cooperate” with building their case for them, and he’s not, and that upsets them because it’s giving them real problems.
