Actually, in this situation, there are only negatives to take the stand. As was the case when he kept giving interviews right after the fiasco came to light. There was no possitive that would come of it. Remember, in the US everything you say can be used against you, and only against you. That is why you lawyer up on any interrogation and the first thing the lawyers will tell you is to SAY NOTHING.

In fact, even talking to police has the possibility to make you better off for example if you can wrongly lead them to not think you're the suspect.
