Answer:

He should not have an excessive bail and no cruel or unusual punishment. This amendment keeps the federal government from performing harsh penalties on criminal defendants.

Step-by-step explanation:

So in simple definition Mark shall not be treated cruelly and has rights like everyone else does and should not be treated differently from other criminal defendants.

(Have a wonderful day!)
