The Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution protects individuals from being compelled to testify against themselves in criminal cases. This right is often referred to as the right to remain silent, allowing defendants to avoid self-incrimination during their trial. This amendment is a key component of the due process rights afforded to individuals in the legal system.
