15. Mr. Wade was accused of treason during World War I. During his trial, the prosecution brought forward one witness against him. This witness testified
that she saw Mr. Wade giving "aid and comfort" to the enemy. Based on this
testimony, Mr. Wade was convicted. Although Congress has declared that
the punishment for treason would be life imprisonment, Mr. Wade's crime
was considered so severe that the judge presiding at his trial ordered him
put to death by hanging. In addition, Mr. Wade's wife and children had their
citizenship revoked and were denied the right to inherit his property. There
are three things wrong with the above scenario. Describe what they are,
using passages from the Constitution to support your answer.
