What information should you never disclose to a suspect during a domestic violence call?

During a domestic violence call, it is crucial to protect the integrity of the investigation and the safety of those involved. Disclosing who called law enforcement or what the victim said can jeopardize the victim's safety and lead to further retaliation from the suspect. It may also discourage the victim from cooperating with law enforcement in the future if they feel their confidentiality is not being respected.

Protecting the identity of the caller and the statements made by the victim is essential in maintaining trust and ensuring the victim feels safe to report future incidents. This confidentiality also serves to preserve the evidence that may be necessary for legal proceedings.

While it might seem relevant to share certain details about the crime scene, or even to express an opinion on the situation, doing so could compromise the investigation or disclose sensitive information that could be misused by the suspect.
