In the case of Powell v. Alabama (1932), the Supreme Court ruled that the defendants' right to counsel was violated, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment's Due Process Clause. The case involved nine African American teenagers accused of raping two white women, and they were not provided with adequate legal representation during their trial. This lack of counsel constituted a denial of a fair trial, highlighting the importance of legal representation in ensuring justice. The ruling established that states are required to provide counsel to defendants who cannot afford one in capital cases.
