Although the five refusals are a factor we have considered, we conclude that under the \u2018totality of the circumstances\u2019 there is not a basis for us to conclude that Appellant&#8217;s entry of his passcode was involuntary. Indeed, looking at the facts and the law as a whole, we conclude that the military judge did not abuse his discretion in denying Appellant&#8217;s motion to suppress.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.armfor.uscourts.gov\/opinions\/2021OctTerm\/210304.pdf\">United States v.
