Episode 32 – The Sixth Amendment: Right to a fair trial

Welcome to Our Republic.

“In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.”

Imagine this: it’s 1760s England. You’ve been accused of insulting the king. Not proven guilty — just accused. Soldiers drag you into a cell. Weeks pass. Months. No trial, no charges, no lawyer. And when you finally do get a trial, it’s in a secret room, with the king’s judges, and the witnesses are people you’ve never even seen. You’re guilty before you even open your mouth.
