This is why we say:
DO NOT SPEAK TO THE POLICE AND DO NOT SPEAK TO A PROSECUTOR, UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
Never, ever, ever trust the police or anything they tell you. Seriously. If I had $1 for every time I had a client in jail say "Oh, the cop said that if I told him what happened, I'd get to go home," I'd have, well, quite a few dollars, and maybe I could use some of them to bail out the dudes sittin' in the pokey because they told the cop what happened and did not get to go home.
I do think that many minor legal dilemmas can be handled on your own -- however, as in this case, when a cop is getting all crazy on you, you're smart to get a lawyer. Make sure to tell your lawyer everything you told the cops from the beginning -- and good luck!
