The 5th Amendment states that "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 offence 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"

This is important as it means that, amongst other things, the Government can't make you provide testimony against yourself.

For instance, in Rochin v. California, the Supreme Court held that cops couldn't beat you until you vomited up the drugs you swallowed to hide from the cops. They ruled that the police officers violated the suspect's 5th amendment rights.

Who would win in a fight medusa or cerberus
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Well we need to look at their advantages, their abilities.

Explanation:

Medusa can turn anyone to stone, all they have to do is look in her eyes. She also has snakes for hair. No one knows what type(s) of snakes. If the snakes are poisonous, then she has another advantage, the snake could poison Cerberus. If they aren't poisonous then they can only wound him.

Cerberus is a 3 headed dog and dogs don't make eye contact. It's rare they do so it would be unlikely that medusa could convince Cerberus to look in her  eyes. Cerberus lives in the Underworld, as a pet for Hades. He is used to toxins and so certain types of venoms/toxins may not affect him. No one knows what type of dog Cerberus is but many suggest he is a form of Hellhound. Some say Hellhounds can shadow travel and withstand fire. If Cerberus is a Hellhound he could use fire and shadow-traveling to his advantage.

It is hard to tell but if it came down to betting on who would win, I'd bet Cerberus because let's face it, Hades isn't gonna let something bad happen to his pupper, who would?
