A citizen accused of a crime is entitled to which fundamental right?

The Sixth Amendment guarantees a defendant the right to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury in many criminal cases. Therefore, the correct answer is trial by a jury. A judge may oversee the trial, but a defendant is not always entitled to have the judge decide guilt instead of a jury; bail and house arrest are not guaranteed fundamental rights in every case.
