Question

Think about Miranda v. Arizona and how it related

Answer 1

The correct answers are The Fifth and Sixth Amendment

Explanation:

Miranda v. Arizona was a legal case in 1966, in this, Ernesto Miranda accused of kidnapping and sexual abuse confessed during the interrogation, which led to a sentence of about 20 years. However, Miranda was never told he could have counsel or guidance of a lawyer, he could remain in silence, or his words would be used against him, which means he was not informed of his rights and the legal procedure was not followed. Due to this, the Supreme Court determined the trial and process had not been legal and a retrial was necessary.

Moreover, this decision was related to the fifth amendment that protects against self-incrimination including the right to not answer questions against oneself; as well as, the sixth amendment that establishes a public, speedy and fair trial should be guaranteed. Thus, this case addressed the fifth and sixth amendments.
