The Sixth Amendment is as follows:

"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 where in 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 defence."

Basically:

1. Right to a speedy and public trial

2. You can't be tried in a state where you weren't accused of committing a crime

3. Right to face your accusers.

4. Right to call your own witnesses

5. Right to counsel
