Question

Which of the following

is true according to the
5th Amendment?

A. People who are accused of crimes do not have to
give testimony against themselves.

B. People who are accused of crimes must give
testimony against themselves if necessary.

C. People who are accused of crimes do not have the
right to hear any witnesses against them.

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The wording of the 4th of six clauses of the 5th Amendment is

... nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to a witness against himself, ...

Notice the word criminal. The same right is not (at least by this clause) extended to civil cases.

In any event, the answer is A.
