Truth: The social worker employed by DCF/CYS is just as much of a government agent as the police officer. No matter which one is knocking at your door or asking to talk to you, your Miranda rights apply -- to remain silent, to have privacy in your home unless they have a court order, and to talk to a lawyer before answering any questions. These rights exist to protect innocent people just as surely as they protect the rights of the guilty and it is always wise to exercise them. One of the most dangerous things in the world is when the government arrives at your door to offer help when you haven't asked for any.
