The appropriate response is the Sixth Amendment of the Constitution. This is the area of the Bill of Rights that ensures a resident an expedient trial, a reasonable jury, a lawyer if the charged individual needs one, and the opportunity to stand up to the witnesses who is blaming the litigant for a wrongdoing, which means he or she can see who is making allegations. The Sixth Amendment was presented as a piece of the Bill of Rights into the United States Constitution on September 5, 1789 and was voted in favor of by 9 out of 12 states on December 15, 1791.
