Bottom line is that the suspect was OK because kept his mouth zippered,
neither admitting nor denying any knowledge of the encrypted partition.
Had he admitted control of the partition, *then* they would have been
able to compel production of the key.
The court did not concede any right to refuse to decrypt a drive if you
admit possession of the contents.
So: Don't talk to police about the contents of your drive, or indeed
anything of which they might potentially disapprove.
