Its important to note that Garrity only applies to public employees. This is because their employer is the government, and the government cannot compel a person to testify against themselves per the Fifth Amendment.
Garrity Rights apply to the right of a public employee not to be compelled to incriminate themselves by their employer. These rights are based on the 1967 United States Supreme Court decision Garrity v. New Jersey. Garrity Rights apply only to public employees, because they are employed by the government itself.
Garrity warnings are typically given to law enforcement officers who are suspected of misconduct, such as excessive force, corruption, or violation of departmental policies. The warning is meant to ensure that officers are aware of their rights and that their statements are voluntary and not coerced.
The basic premise of the Garrity protection is straightforward: First, an Officer cannot be compelled, by the threat of serious discipline, to make statements that may be used in a subsequent criminal proceeding; second, an Officer cannot be terminated for refusing to waive his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.
If an employee makes false statements under Garrity protection, they can be prosecuted for making false statements, and their statements can be used against them in that prosecution. A number of courts have ruled that Garrity does not protect false statements.
