Woman who pleaded Fifth in password case now citing Fourth

Posted on February 11, 2012 by pogowasright.org

Via FourthAmendment.com, this report by John Fontana of ZDNet:

A woman who pleaded the Fifth Amendment before being ordered by a federal court to provide a password to decrypt a computer hard drive is appealing the order and now citing the Fourth Amendment.

The case drew national attention when the accused, Ramona Fricosu, argued that surrendering a password was a violation of her Fifth Amendment rights, which protect against self-incrimination.
