Don't you agree?



Absolutely. It seems illogical. But, is it constitutionally prohibited?

Like I said earlier, I think there may be other reasons to invoke it than just avoiding questioning on one topic. I've always been told to never talk to cops because in trying to proclaim your innocence of one crime, you more likely than not unwittingly admit to the commission of another.

If there is any concern as to that effect, you do not lie under oath by claiming there is in fact no concern or possibility of it.
