The Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution is one of the original 10 amendments that are known as the "Bill of Rights", which were included with the Constitution.

Many founding fathers, such as Thomas Jefferson and John Adams, fought for the addition of the Bill of Rights to the Constitution, because they felt that unless you spelled out the rights for the common man, the government would grow to be tyrannical, just like the British crown they'd just fought to overthrow.
