The problem is: they have enough. Like a logging system with documented external audits and the sworn testimony of the engineers that run it, and it shows him downloading those documents.

And the fifth amendment protects you from "adverse inference" in criminal proceedings. It doesn't protect you in a civil suit, nor does it bind me or others in this thread or the general public to conclude that yes, Levandowsky's trucking company is probably heading for a wall.

Nobody seemed to mind when Shkreli plead the fifth all the way through a congressional hearing, not sure how this is different. Other than the obvious fact that it's not a congressional hearing.
