Edward Rosenheimer was charged with a hit-and-run accident, but he claimed that the law requiring him to report the accident to the police was unconstitutional because it forced him to incriminate himself, violating the U.S. Constitution. A New York judge agreed and released him from custody. This case eventually came before the New York Court of Appeals; what was this court‘s decision? a. Rosenheimer‘s original verdict was upheld because the law forcing him to incriminate himself was said by this court to be unconstitutional. b. Rosenheimer was released from custody because the Court of General Sessions in New York State said that the hit-and-run regulation should be removed because of unconstitutionality. c. The New York Court of Appeals concluded that the right to avoid self-incrimination did not outweigh the right of injured persons to seek redress for their sufferings.
