Spousal privilege.... Is that just a TV/movie thing or not applicable here?

Spousal privilege is a rule of evidence that allows a defendant to prevent having testimony introduced regarding something that the defendant said to his/her spouse. It does not protect a false statement made to the police.

Prevent having to testify is WAY different than giving misleading testimony.
