Victory: Utah Supreme Court Upholds Right to Refuse to Tell Cops Your Passcode

"In State v. Valdez, the court found that verbally telling police a passcode is “testimonial” under the Fifth Amendment, and that the so-called foregone conclusion exception does not apply to “ordinary testimony” like this. This closely tracks arguments in the amicus brief EFF and the ACLU filed in the case.""

This was already established case law. Surprised it had to be retried.

Unfortunately, I’m still in the “shocked every time how far we’ve fallen” stage. 🫠
