You need better friends. Most people I chat with regularly absolutely would not volunteer anything to law enforcement.

Yeah, bullshit. "Tell us this thing or you are going to jail. Might have a trial in a week or a month."

I promise you you aren't the main character in your friends' lives and they will absolutely give up information on you to save their career and their family.
