government from imposing excessive bail, excessive fines, or cruel and unusual punishments. In practice, this means that courts must ensure that penalties for crimes are proportionate and humane, and that bail amounts are not set so high as to be punitive or unattainable. For example, it prevents punishments such as torture or disproportionately long prison sentences for minor offenses. The core function of the Eighth Amendment is to protect individuals from government abuse in the criminal justice system by setting clear limits on the severity of penalties and ensuring fair treatment."}, "json": true, "cursor": ""}}
