Protection from self-incrimination ensures due process during questioning. A police officer cannot rush questioning a suspect in case he intimidates the suspect into false confessions. This ensures that when questioning is brought to the courtroom it is admissible and fair.
Without protection from self-incrimination, law enforcement agents might take advantage of suspects. They might try to intimidate a suspect into confessing just to hurry the investigation along. The suspect would not be able to get out of the investigation and could be forced into a false confession.
