“(Immunity statutes are designed to serve as substitutes for the fifth amendment right not to incriminate oneself. Without such statutes no person in a criminal case can constitutionally be compelled to testify.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“The evidence submitted to the sentencing court establishes that the defendant did not have, prior to the death of James Thimm, a prior conviction of another murder or a crime involving the use or threat of violence to the person. However, the facts surrounding the death of Luke Stice actually predated the death of James Thimm by approximately one month. Although, the first clause of this aggravating circumstance is not applicable, the Court feels that the second clause of the aggravating circumstance is applicable. The Court finds from the evidence that the following facts, which facts are not all inclusive, support the finding beyond a reasonable doubt that Michael W. Ryan had a substantial history of serious assaultive or terrorizing criminal activity: a) Michael W. Ryan either spanked and beat Luke Stice, or directed others to do this; b) Michael W. Ryan either administered cold showers to Luke and held him under cold water or directed that this be done to Luke; c) Michael W. Ryan directed others to sexually abuse Luke Stice; d) Michael W. Ryan used Luke Stice as an ashtray; e) Michael W. Ryan rolled Luke around in the snow without any clothes on or directed others to do this to Luke; f) Michael W. Ryan spit in the mouth of Luke Stice; g) Michael W. Ryan shot chickens in the presence of Luke Stice to create in him a fear of guns or directed that this be done to Luke; h) Michael W. Ryan terrorized Luke Stice by placing a gun in his mouth and also by shooting him in the arm;”

Ryan“Whenever a witness refuses, on the basis of the privilege against self-incrimination, to testify or to provide other information in a criminal proceeding before a court or grand jury, the court, on motion of the county attorney or other prosecuting attorney, may order the witness to testify or to provide other information. The witness may not refuse to comply with such an order of the court on the basis of the privilege against self-incrimination, but no testimony or other information compelled under the court’s order, or any information directly or indirectly derived from such testimony or other information, may be used against the witness in any criminal case, except in a prosecution for perjury, giving a false statement, or failing to comply with the order of the court.”
