Answer:

The Fifth Amendment

Explanation:

The fifth amendment prevents interrogation from the police for any criminal charge as long as the person has not been indicted by the grand jury and as long as they have not been tried fairly. In this case as long as the defendant invokes her right to counsel, then she must be provided with a lawyer for any criminal charge and it is only after the trial and she is been found guilty by the grand jury, the police has no right to interrogate her further.
