If you are claiming self defense, yes, F the 5th amendment. Self defense is different than saying that they didn't kill a person in which all the person is going to say is their alibi that they were somewhere else when the murder happened.
So let's say someone like Rachel Jeantel had to kill someone for self-defense reasons. How well do you think her cross examination would go? Not everyone is built for public speaking...much less public speaking while getting grilled by a seasoned lawyer.
