5 0

The big difference is that today's judgments have a legal rite. People should be judged with dignity, which was not always the case at that time, and condemnation must be evidence-based, which was not always respected either.

Another difference is that today there is no judgment based on supernatural situations, as was the case of the Witches of Salem. For a judgment made under the aegis of democracy, crime must have motives that can be substantiated. Finally, people who are tried today have a broad right of defense, which was not the case in the Middle Ages.

What do amendments IV-VIII have in common?

Brut [27]

Answer:

Amendments IV-VIII (4-8) all deal with the legal rights of American citizens.

Explanation:

Amendment IV protects individuals from unreasonable searches and seizures. This means that in most cases, a law enforcement agency must have a warrant in order to search an individuals property. Amendment V protects citizens from self incrimination and double jeopardy. This means that individuals cannot be tried for the exact same crime twice. This prevents government harassment of citizens. Amendment VI ensures that citizens have the right to a fair and speedy public trial. Amendment VII ensures that citizens involved in a civil case have the opportunity to have their case tried in front of a jury of their peers. Amendment VIII prevents the government or law enforcement agencies from setting an excessive bail amount.
