Compelled Internal Affairs Interviews and Fifth Amendment Rights.

The article analyzes challenges faced by police managers in protecting constitutional rights of officers accused of wrongdoing while also preserving departmental internal discipline and officer fitness for duty. It discusses Indiana Court of Appeals decision in Criswell v. State of Indiana which is an example of how a state appellate court applied universally applicable U.S. Supreme Court constitutional protections in a matter involving a denial of an officer's Fifth Amendment rights.
