Are you saying the 8th Amendment only applies to criminal cases?

Are you saying the 5th Amendment doesn't guarantee that citizens cannot be deprived of life, liberty, and property without due process?

Which constitution have you been reading?

The 5th Amendment guarantees due process rights from the Federal government.

The 14th guarantees due proces rights from the States.

Due Process rights are the same in both cases its just a matter of which government is covered by which clause.
