In rule, self-incrimination is the provision of proof that can appear to subject the witness to criminal punishment. In relation to the right of refusing to supply such evidence, the term is commonly used. An individual fearing self-incrimination could make his own decision in some continental European countries as to whether or not he will testify. On the other hand, a person other than a convict does not refuse to testify under Anglo-American practice; he can only cite his right against self-incrimination, and the judge decides whether to testify. He would answer all questions if asked to testify, except those he finds to be self-incriminating.As a consequence of investigation, self-incrimination may occur or may be voluntarily carried out. The Constitution's Fifth Amendment prevents a citizen from being coerced to incriminate themselves. It is also appropriate to refer to self-incrimination as self-crimination or self-inculpation.
