    “You Have the Right To Remain Innocent”, by James Duane. He also has had a few very famous videos on YouTube, which can best be summed up as, “Under advice from counsel, I am invoking my fifth amendment right to remain silent. I want an attorney.”

      Just looked it up, looks interesting. Also just found out that using fifth amendment can be used as evidence against you, I thought that wasn’t allowed.

        IIRC, you need to actually assert that you are exercising your 5A rights; simply remaining silent is not sufficient.

        But yeah, SCOTUS has really significantly weakened that amendment, in a very bad way.
