Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)

1. Cruel and unusual punishment is prohibited by the Sixth Amendment. 2. A punishment meets the definition for "cruel and unusual" if it involves unnecessary infliction of pain. 3. Because punishments are considered cruel and unusual based on the "evolving standards of decency that mark the progress of a maturing society" what is acceptable today may be unacceptable tomorrow. 4. The founding fathers never intended for us to use the death penalty as a form of punishment for criminal behavior. We believe this because there is no mention of the death penalty in the actual text of the Constitution. 5.
