《美利堅合眾國憲法》第八修正案（英語：Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution）簡稱「第八修正案」（Amendment VIII），是權利法案的一部分，主要目的是不允許施加酷刑。它來源於英國法律，導致了日後美國法律廢除對未成年人的死刑。[1]
內容
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
- 譯文：不得要求過多的保釋金，不得處以過重的罰金，不得施加殘酷並且不正常的懲罰。
