What two groups made up the crowd that waited outside the federal arsenal?

1 answer:

3 0

The raid on Harper's Ferry was an intent by John Brown, who was an abolitionist, to initiate a slave revolt in 1859 by taking control on the federal arsenal located in Harper's Ferry, Virginia.

The two groups that were outside the arsenal were:

<em>John Brown's "group of 22"</em>. This group of men was supposed to be supported abolitionists Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass. However, none of them showed up in the scene, as Tubman fell ill and Douglass was doubtful of a victory.
<em>A group of US Marines</em> led by Colonel Robert E. Lee.

The attempt was unsuccessful, resulting in the defeat of Brown's group by the US Marines.

(HC) The quote below comes from the Supreme Court ruling in 1963:

marshall27 [118]

Answer: "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to ... have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence."

Explanation:

The Supreme Court in this instance is saying that the right to a legal counsel is a fundamental aspect of the trial process in the United States even if this is not the case in other countries.

The Supreme Court is therefore saying that in all criminal prosecutions, regardless of the heinousness of the crime committed by the accused, they must always have the right to a counsel as this is the only way to ensure a fair trial.
