If my parents car was stolen and now their insurance company wants my cell phone records, what shouldI do?

I’ve given statements in person under oath. Now they want to have me do another one with their local attorney. Is has been 3 months since the car was stolen. When will this end? Should I hire a criminal defense attorney? I’m in Los Angeles, CA.

It may be time that you consult with an attorney on the matter, especially since you have already given two separate statements and one sworn.  You do not want to be placed in the position of committing perjury by forgetting something (which, by the way, you answer with "I don't remember" and not with "I think it was xyz.").  It is perfectly understandable that time can cause you to remember the details.  They are no longer fresh in your mind.  Plus, here, you want to know if you are some sort of suspect and what evidence they have.  An attorney can discuss these matters with your best interest in mind with the detectives and the prosecutors.  Good luck.
