Read the statements below, and decide which one is a good example of the principle of the rule of law.
(Adapted from http://judiciallearningcenter.org/law-and-the-rule-of-law/)
Your neighbor is accused of a crime. She has an attorney who will
represent her at a trial. A jury of her peers will make the final decision. The
entire trial is open to the public.
You wait for the walk signal at the crosswalk. As you step into the street a
car speeds through the red light and nearly runs you over. A policeman
nearby ignores the situation.
Murder is against the law, yet the police refuse to arrest a powerful
government official who shoots and kills his neighbor in front of several
eye-witnesses.
The police seize your personal belongings. They give you no warning and
no explanation. When you tell the local judge, she orders you to keep quiet.
