The correct answer is A. "Individuals must have knowledge of their rights."

The quote is actually referring to the Supreme Court case of Miranda vs. Arizona, not Marbury vs. Madison. This court cases refers to a man who was interrogated by police and ended up confessing to a crime after several hours of deliberation. However, the Supreme Court ruled that the evidence received by the police was inadmissible because of the way they forced Miranda to admit and the fact that he did not know his rights as a citizen.

This resulted in the reading of the "Miranda" rights to citizens as they are being arrested.
