Rights Of The Accused
In the Bill of Rights, there are a total of ten amendments. Only four of those are called The Rights of the Accused. Amendment four, five, six, and eight are classified as The Rights of the Accused. Without these rights, nobody would know their rights while being arrested.
Amendment four states that police or officials can search your vehicle or property without a reason. Without this amendment, your privacy would be invaded. This amendment provides you with the protection and not to be invaded by police. Amendment five states that you have the right to be formally charged, the right to remain silent, due process of law, compensation for property, and you can not have double jeopardy. Amendment six states that you have the right to a trial
by jury. You not only have the right to be informed of charges, but also hear and question witnesses. Amendment eight not only protects you from excessive bail, but also cruel and unusable punishment.
Equally as important as the four amendments, they are all classified as The Rights of the Accused, which means these are the prohibited rights you have when you are being accused of doing something. While being arrested, more and likely they will tell you that you have the right to remain silent. If you request getting your lawyer, they are required to contact them.
Overall, these four amendments makes our government more professional and organized. The Rights of the Accused are your required rights. Officials are not allowed to break these amendments.
