Конституція США надає обвинуваченому різні основні права. Ці права призначені для захисту особи від безпідставного втручання з боку влади та для забезпечення загальних принципів справедливості. Порушення цих прав може спричинити відхилення звинувачень у вчиненні злочину, а також до кримінальної або цивільної відповідальності осіб, винних у порушенні згаданих прав. У чотирнадцятій поправці до Конституції зазначається, що кожен має право на однаковий захист у встановленому законом порядку. У цій поправці також зазначається, що ніхто не може бути позбавлений життя, свободи або власності без належної судової процедури. Це означає, що закон може застосовуватися тільки шляхом раціональної процедури, призначеної для забезпечення загальних принципів справедливості.
Конституція США зазначає, що ніхто не може бути притягнутий до кримінальної відповідальності більше одного разу за одне й те саме правопорушення. Загалом, це означає, що в будь-якій кримінальній справі державі надається лише один шанс. Якщо
388
особу
визнано невинною, держава не має права
оскаржити рішення або намагатися
провести повторні слухання. Таке ж
правило діє й стосовно випадку, коли
обвинуваченого визнано винним. Держава
не може знову обвинуватити його або
намагатися накласти подвійне покарання
за той же злочин. До цього загального
правила є винятки. Наприклад, другий
судовий розгляд справи може мати місце,
якщо обвинуваченого було визнано
винним, але цей вирок був скасований
внаслідок апеляції.
Конституція
США забороняє безпідставні обшуки та
конфіскацію майна. Зазвичай представники
правоохоронних органів не мають права
обшукувати особу чи її майно без ордера
на обшук. Такий ордер видається суддею
лише тоді, коли він має обгрунтовану
підставу вважати, що певний доказ
злочину може бути знайдено у певному
місці, яке необхідно обшукати. Існують
ситуації, в яких представник правоохоронних
органів може провести обшук без ордера,
наприклад, у зв’язку із законним
арештом, якщо обшук проводиться з
дозволу особи, майно якої обшукується,
або коли знайдені речі лежали на видноті
тощо.
Конституція
США зазначає, що ніхто не може бути
примушений свідчити проти самого себе.
Це означає, що не можна тортурами
примушувати особу робити зізнання або
шкідливі для цієї особи заяви чи взагалі
будь-які заяви. Крім того, особа не може
бути примушена визнати себе винною або
робити заяви шляхом залякування,
виснаження допитами, обдурювання або
обіцянками пом’якшити покарання.
За
Конституцією обвинувачений має право
користуватися послугами адвоката. Якщо
він не може найняти собі адвоката,
держава зобов’язана забезпечити йому
адвоката в усіх справах, де можливим
покаранням є ув’язнення.

PART
2. FAST TRIALS RUN DEEP
The
accused is entitled to a fair notice of the specific charges against
her. This notice allows him or her to prepare their defence
intelligently. The accused cannot prepare a defence if the charge is
a vague statement of some unspecified wrongdoing. The United States
Constitution states that the accused is entitled to a speedy trial.
The accused cannot be made to wait indefinitely with a criminal
charge hanging over his or her head, but must be given the
opportunity to have the matter resolved quickly. In Ohio, for
example, specific time limits are provided by statute; these time
limits can be extended only for good cause. The times within which
the accused must be brought to trial after an arrest or service of
summons are as follows: thirty days for trial in mayors’ courts,
or trials for minor misdemeanours in any court; forty-five days for
trials of misdemeanours carrying a maximum penalty of sixty days in
jail; ninety days for trials of more serious misdemeanours; fifteen
days for preliminary hearings in felony cases; and two hundred and
seventy days for trials in felony cases. The statute provides that
each day spent in jail awaiting trial must be counted as three days.
Thus, for example, if the accused in a felony case cannot make bail,
she must be given a preliminary hearing within five days after her
arrest, and must be brought to trial within ninety days after her
arrest.
