Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. The fifth amendment allows for a person not to be forced to criminalize themselves by saying anything that may be used against them. Also, it protects one from being punished twice for one crime. This allows for a person to go to trial once for one crime they may have committed.  This video gives a slow explanation of each aspect of the fifth amendment. It provides examples so that the audience can comprehend the amendment.
