Suspects must now, pursuant to a recent Supreme Court decision, specifically advise LEO’s of their 5th Amendment prerogative and right to speak with an attorney before responding, else, their silence can be used against them in a court of law. Continuing to speak to the LEO after invoking these rights will be construed, in law, as a waiver of them.
