1976See also Kelley v. State, 478 S.W.2d 73 (Tenn.Ct.Cr.App.) wherein the prosecution was permitted to show defendant’s silence while in custody of police officers where the defendant undertook to testify that “he was bent upon reporting the facts of this burglary as soon as he could get in touch with certain other officers.” In these cases the courts sought to and did strike a balance between protecting the self-incrimination bar of the Fifth Amendment and allowing full testing of the truth of defendant’s trial testimony.
