What will be an ideal response?


Yes. As a general rule, evidence obtained in violation of either the Fifth or Sixth Amendment will be excluded at a criminal trial. Whenever law enforcement violates one or more of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendments—the most common amendments in criminal procedure—the evidence resulting from such a violation will not be admissible in a court of law.
