The 8th amendment can also help people with many things. There have been a lot of cases where the 8th amendmnet helped people not get the death penalty.

The 8th amendment helped a lot of people because he portected them against the court if the court didnt either like the person or rasicm came in. Most courts really gave a lot of people the death penalty in the 1600s or somewhere between that and the 8th amendment really helped them. ]]> 2022-12-22 17:04:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wastefulscratchtechnologies/hb3ap1snvony8zkh/wish/2427583663
