Precisely. The bit about it being at the option of the DA is to tempt you into trying to say something to defend yourself, and the bit about the possible sentence is to scare you. The people who get investigated further are the ones who try to defend themselves and the ones who immediately clam up. The former, however, are the ones who get convicted.
One way to play this situation is to act shocked like you have no clue why your phone # would be in her phone records. But take care with this angle; Sgt. Pigg is trained to spot a lie and he will immediately try to weasel more out of you. If you are not icy cool, just STFU.
