Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Good answers should cover the right to counsel (and effective representation) and to be informed of exculpatory evidence as retained rights. Forfeited rights in a guilty plea include the right against
self-incrimination, jury trial, and to confront and cross examine witnesses against the defendant.
