The Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendment definitely deals with the rights of the criminals and they have been quite comprehensively laid out in the Bill of Rights. The Fourth Amendment provides protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. The Fifth Amendment states that a person is safe from arrest, imprisonment, self-incrimination, having one’s stuff confiscated and being put to death without due process of law.
