The correct answer is they are assigned an attorney by the court.

The Sixth Amendment of the US Constitution guarantees all citizens the right to counsel. This means that if an individual cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to them by the government. This is an important part of the Bill of Rights, as this law helps to ensure that all citizens have legal help instead of just being available to those individuals who can pay for it.
