Answer: By the eighth amendment to the Constitution

Explanation: The first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution are called the Bill of Rights, often referred to as the fundamental freedoms, they protect basic rights throughout the criminal justice process.

The Eighth Amendment prohibits inflicting cruel and unusual punishment. As a result of this protection, a person cannot be sentenced too harshly and once in jail, he or she cannot be beaten or deprived of medical attention.

The Eighth Amendment (1791) states that; Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. This Amendment requires judges to

set reasonable and consistent bail as well as suit the sentence to the crime.
