Pbs Learning Media: Crash Course Government and Politics: Due Process of Law

Curated by ACT

In this episode, we discuss the 5th and 6th amendments and how they ensure a fair trial. We'll talk about stuff you tend to hear a lot about on tv, like the right to an attorney and a jury of one's peers, and terms like double jeopardy and pleading the fifth. Now, this stuff can get pretty complicated, which is where lawyers come in handy, but it's important to know your liberties to keep the police and other judicial officers in check. [8:28]
