They still have the option to remain silent. Though this can lead to an adverse inference being drawn. Another option is like what Bill Cosby did and try to work with the prosecutor to secure some measure of immunity from criminal proceedings that could stem from your testimony in a civil trial. Personally I don’t think Cosby should have been granted any of that and just forced to face the fucking music, but rapists gonna rape I guess.
