Amendment 5
Trial and Punishment, Compensation for Takings
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.
Vocabulary: capital: a crime punishable by death
compelled: forced
compensation: something to make up for loss or damage
due process: the principle or idea that a person cannot be deprived of life, liberty or property without getting proper legal procedures and safeguards. This means a person cannot be jailed, executed, have the things they own taken away from them without having legal defense or hearings.
indictment: accusation of a crime presented to the person or persons accused of a crime.
infamous: widely and unfavorably known, bad reputation
