Why? I'm sure they're innocent and if they just write down their side of the story without a pesky attorney everything will be cleared up.

Why? So they don't release incorrect information to the public. Everyone involved has their own information from their POV and there's potential camera evidence to review. They also hold information in case it heads to court so that they don't contaminate the potential juror pool.

If they didn't do anything wrong, they don't have anything to hide. I'm sure this is all just a big misunderstanding.

And yet, I'm sure you're in favor of people not answering questions when asked by police. If you don't have anything to hide, you must be guilty if you exercise the 5th, right?
