In September of 1787, it was sent to the states for ratification. Nine of the 13 states would have to ratify it for the Constitution to become effective for those ratifying states. The future was not certain at all—a debate began among the states over ratification.
B. Himalayas. quizlet has this question if i'm not mistaken.
Answer:
The 5th Amendment of the United States constitution addresses the criminal procedure in the US. This amendment states that "be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." This essentially means that all punishable crimes must be taken through the court system in a reasonable way, and no American is subject to imprisonment, removal of property, or payment of a fine without proper jurisdiction.
The 5th Amendment guarantees my rights as an American in the situation that I get convicted of something in the future. Any punishment for a crime I commit would be determined justifiably based on the severity of my actions, rather than based on how much the judicial system likes me personally. This also means that I can't legally pay money to the judicial system in exchange for a less severe punishment. Lastly, the 5th Amendment promises me that if somebody commits a crime that harms me, my property, or somebody I'm close to, they will face apt punishment for their actions.
