Legal expert: Pleading the fifth is not an admission of guilt

Dana Loesch

Former national security adviser General Michael Flynn plans to invoke his fifth amendment right against self-incrimination and rebuff a Senate subpoena.

John Malcolm, Director for the Heritage Foundation's Edwin Meese III Center forĀ Legal and Judicial Studies, told Dana Loesch on "Dana" today thatĀ invoking the fifth does not automatically mean one is guilty.

HavingĀ beenĀ both a prosecutor and a defense attorney, he notedĀ that with multiple investigations and hearings going on, Flynn could subject himself or others perjury if he testified.
