This is one of the reasons that I find the Fifth Amendment to be important. Without it, the DOJ could simply ask any murder suspect to reveal where they stashed the body and murder weapon, charging them with obstruction of justice or contempt of court if they didn't answer. This, of course, would be a serious problem if the accused didn't actually commit the crime.
