Answer 1

The grievance from the Declaration of Independence that led the American colonists to create the Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is:

A. "[they deprive] us, in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury."

The Sixth Amendment guarantees the rights of criminal defendants, including the right to a public trial, the right to an impartial jury, and the right to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusations against them, addressing the concerns about trial by jury that were prevalent during colonial rule.
