5 0

Answer: The sentence is in <u>passive voice.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

When it comes to passive constructions with modal verbs, the general rule is:

Object + modal verb (can/could/may/must/should/ought to) + be + past participle.

In this case, the object is <em>criminal defendants</em>, followed by a passive construction - <em>must</em> (modal verb) + <em>be</em> + <em>tried </em>(past participle of verb to try).
