Someone accused of a crime who appears in court may not wish to testify and would not have to take an oath.

Not confused one bit, I was commenting on someone being reliable if they take an oath in court. Many people plead not guilty, go on to give evidence (swear an oath) then proceed to tell the court a load of lies and end up being found guilty.
Also, someone who says they are willing to stand up in court and testify that the whole event was social gathering when they weren't there for the whole event (quick video through the window from outside) is pretty much admitting they're more than happy commit purgury.
