For anyone who doesn't get this, a person wanted to envoke their right to an attorney and asked for his "lawyer dawg." The police maliciously interpreted this as asking for a lawyer dog, which you have no right to, and the court agreed that that was a reasonable assumption and that the guy did not envoke his right to an attorney, so they did nothing wrong by not providing one.
