In her defense, claiming the fifth is not an admission of guilt and it is one of our treasured God given rights.

In her defense, claiming the fifth is not an admission of guilt... Simply invoking the right against self-incrimination is a tacit admission that you will be judged to have committed some criminal act if you honestly answer the question.

But we are free to make any inferences from it we like. I infer that this woman should not only not be given a big promotion, she should go to jail.

I agree, but I'm wondering how you can claim the fifth in order to not testify at all. I can see claiming the fifth in response to a specific question or questions, but not to avoid a subpoena.
