How does the right to a grand jury protect the rights of the accused? a) it prevents one from self-incrimination b) it stops the government from trying a person for the same crime twice c) it requires sufficient evidence before moving to trial in cases of serious crimesd) it requires the appointment of a special prosecutor

The correct answer is C.

the Bill of Rights protects those suspected or accused of crimes from unfair or unjust treatment. The prominence of these protections in the Bill of Rights may seem surprising. By mandating writs of habeas corpus, grand juries, public trials, by outlawing bills of attainder &amp; ex post facto laws. <br>

“No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”
