What is the Fifth Amendment?

This legislation created the rights that is relevant to both criminal and civil legal proceedings. In the criminal cases, the Amendment guarantees the right to a grand jury, forbids “double jeopardy,” and protects against self-incrimination.

In essence, the Double Jeopardy prohibits anyone from being prosecuted twice for substantially the same crime. The relevant part of the Fifth Amendment states, "No person shall . . . be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb".
