33. A police officer on foot patrol observes a
woman running out of a department store
with a small television set in her arms. She
is followed by a security guard who shouts,
"Stop that woman! She has just stolen a
television set!" The police officer chases the
woman, who runs to a station wagon and
places the set in the back of it. The driver of
the station wagon, seeing the approaching
officer, drives away before the woman can
get into the car. At this point, the officer
arrests the woman. She claims that she has
not committed any crime and that she is
willing to fully cooperate with the police. It
would be most appropriate for the police
officer to tell the woman that
(A) she is a thief and she should admit to it.
(B) she will have her day in court.
(C) she is only hurting herself by not
admitting to her guilt.
(D) he and the security guard can both
testify against her since they both saw
her running from the store with the
television set in her arms.
