NJ Supreme Court: No 5th Amendment right not to unlock your phone

Enlarge (credit: ymgerman / Getty) New Jersey's Supreme Court has ruled that compelling a suspect to unlock his or her cell phone doesn't violate the Fifth Amendment.

Back in June, Indiana's Supreme Court reached the opposite conclusion, and several other state and federal courts have reached divergent positions on the issue over the last few years. This case focuses on an allegedly corrupt cop named Robert Andrews.
