The Fifth Amendment entitles you to not say anything about something you have just been arrested for. Many emotions prevail when you have just been accused of something - even as far as admitting you have doen something when you haven't. This amendment is to protect you until you calm down and are thinking straight. Of course you can waive your 'amanda rights' but they will be taken into consideration should your case go to court. Take my advice - use your fifth amendment wisely!
