...does Volpe's guilty plea mean that the blue wall of silence is finally tumbling down, as Giuliani and Police Commissioner Howard Safir claim? Don't bet on it. Several law-enforcement experts told TIME correspondent Elaine Rivera that they believe the code of silence remains intact. Volpe refused to name other officers who took part in the assault. And the officers who testified against him waited days and weeks to come forward--and did so then only under the pressure of a highly publicized investigation.
