The US has used civil law to remove all kinds of rights. A person can make a plea deal (civil/contract law) that supersedes the government having to observe that persons constitutional rights and can erase all of their constitutional rights.
The government shouldn't be able to threaten you with 50 years in prison if you don't give up your rights. And they definitely shouldn't be able to tell a just that the agreement/plea wasn't coerced. But here we are.
