Which constitutional right is the most valuable to an accused person during trial?

Question

I could use an explanation to satisfy my curiosity. Thank you all in advance.

Answer 1

The right to be innocent till proven guilty

OR

the freedom of speach

Answer 2

The right to plead the fifth ammendment. This allows the accused not to incriminate himself. The law states that you are considered innocent until proven guilty, so you can remain silent and let the state prove "beyond a shadow of a doubt" that you are guilty. Hope this helps you a bit...

Answer 3

I believe the above, with out the criminal expert, the accused could have a confusing time imposing the dazzling against self-incrimination, the dazzling to a speedy trial, the dazzling to stand the accuser, and the dazzling against intense bail.

Answer 4

Innocent until proven guilty. It colors the entire practice of law in the United States and places the burden of proof on the government to show guilt of all elements of a crime.

Answer 5

The Fifth Amendment gives you the right to not self incriminate. Depending on the trail there other aspects of evidence laws that would be more useful. Such privileged conversations with your attorney, spouse, accountant, so on.

Answer 6

It really depends

The 4th amendment right to no unreasonable searches could get all the evidence against an accused thrown out!

Answer 7

the right to a jury trial......you need a unanimous vote of guilty to be guilty and with so many errors and issues regarding arrests these days.......you are liable to get an "O.J." verdict and be found innocent.

Answer 8

the fifth amendment. you got yourself accused because you got caught. SHUT THE ***** UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! HIRE A TOP CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER!!!!!!!!!!! the lawyer will either get you off or get you less time.
