A more thorough explanation: “To witness against oneself” refers to the act of providing testimony or evidence that incriminates oneself in a legal proceeding. This concept is often associated with the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution, which protects individuals from being compelled to be a witness against themselves in a criminal case.
Example: In criminal cases, the defendant has the right to remain silent and not to witness against oneself, as guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution.
