For years prisoners,
like William Underwood, have been denied access to the
courts……after making Sixth Amendment challenges
to the Application of the Federal Sentencing Guidelines
over 15 years ago at trial, sentence and on direct appeal.
This appalling injustice has lead to the formation of
the website, INPRISON.net…
Dedicated to the Resurrection and Reaffirmation of the
Fifth and Sixth Amendments in the jury trial system
which reads in part:
Fifth Amendment
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital,
or otherwise infamous crime,
unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand
Jury, nor shall any person be subject for
the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life
or limb, nor shall be compelled in a criminal case
to be a witness against himself, not be deprived
of life, liberty, or property, without due process of
law."
Sixth Amendment
"In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall
enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial,
by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein
the crime shall have been committed and to
be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation;
to be confronted with the witnesses against him;
to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses
in his favor and to have the Assistance of Counsel
for his defense."
