Project # 1 Bill of Rights
5th amendment
Constitution speaks:
Amendment V: No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Right to remain silent
no double jeopardy
self incrimination
This is still very relevant. We have the right to remain silent till court. We also have the right to know why we are being tried, they cant just take us without a reason.
