Explanation:
The Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution is part of the Bill of Rights. Like the other amendments that make up the Bill of Rights, it was introduced to Congress on September 5, 1789 and ratified by the required number of states on December 15, 1791.
It states that a person accused of a crime has the right to a proper trial, should not be prosecuted twice for the same crime, and should not be forced to testify against himself, and that government “does not have the right to seize private property without due process of law".
