Under US law, you have a nearly absolute right to not answer police questions.
- jandrewrogers 2mo agoYes of course. But their use of the PIN will likely only occur if you answer, which many people will. This is a common setup in interrogations.
- 8note 2mo agothe utah cops definitely would, based on whats been released from the rwckless ben bodycam footage
- prmoustache 2mo agoI belive this only applies if you are a US citizen and not a visitor.
- Xirdus 2mo agoUp in the air. SCOTUS didn't decide on this specific right. They did rule on other constitutional protections though, sometimes granting, sometimes denying them to non-citizens. It also depends if you're just arriving or already are in the US. For example, illegal immigrants who jumped the border fence have more rights than legal immigrants who didn't leave the airport yet.
