Abstract
This work analyses the accused's silence in criminal procedures, from a comparative perspective. First of all, is the German system to be analyzed, given that scholarship and the courts have intensely discussed about the probative value of the accused's total, partial and temporary silence. Secondly, is the Chilean model adopted after the promulgation in the year 2000 of the Code of Criminal Procedure to be discussed.
