Someone ate all the cookies in the kitchen. The police think you did it. You say “I didn’t steal the cookies! I was just in the kitchen getting some milk and don’t know how I got crumbs on my shirt and chocolate on my chin.”
In court, they can use your words to show that: (1) you were at the scene of the crime; (2) you had cookie crumbs on your clothes; and (3) you had chocolate near your mouth.
You didn’t admit to eating the cookies, but in saying that to the police you still gave them some evidence to use against you.
