Answer:

A) Fifth Amendment

Step-by-step explanation:

The Fifth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights, which are the first 10 Amendments to the United States Constitution and the framework to elucidate upon the freedoms of the individual. The Fifth Amendment addresses criminal procedure and other aspects of the Constitution. It protects individuals from being compelled to be witnesses against themselves in criminal cases and protects them from being subject to multiple prosecutions for the same offense. The Double Jeopardy Clause in the Fifth Amendment provides that no person shall "be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb." The Grand Jury Clause requires "presentment" or indictment by a grand jury for any capital offense, or otherwise infamous crime, prior to any trial. The Self-Incrimination Clause provides that no person

"shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself."
