Answer
Amendment 5 protects the right to a grand jury, protection against double jeopardy, the right to remain silent, due process of law, and protection against the taking of private property without just compensation. Some Supreme Court precedents that helped define these rights include Miranda v. Arizona (1966) and Kelo v. City of New London (2005).
