The answer is B. Also known as double jeopardy.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. One of the Fifth Amendment protections is that no one can be tried twice for the same crime.

Explanation:

The Fifth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States is part of the Bill of Rights of the United States and establishes guarantees against the abuse of government authority, such as trial by the grand jury, the right to remain silent and thus avoid self-incrimination, the right to be judged only once on the same facts (prohibition on bis in idem) and the right to just compensation for expropriated property. In addition, the amendment brings the due process clause, according to which "no one can be deprived of his life, liberty or property without due process of law for all humans."
