* The prosecutor being required to prove guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt" - the highest standard of proof that exists in the legal system * The right to confront adverse witnesses * The right to be indicted by a grand jury * The right to counsel * The right to a speedy and public trial * The right to trial by jury * Protection from cruel and unusual punishment * Protection from excessive bail or fines * Protection from double jeopardy * The right to notice of the accusations against the defendant
