Respuesta :

So I would disagree with the wording, but I think it wants A. He took away the writ of habeas corpus which basically means that a person could be jailed with no legal reason.

The correct answer is A. Could be imprisoned illegally

Explanation

President Lincoln suspended the writ of the habeas corpus on 1862 after the civil war and ordered the political prisoners to be released, considering  the Habeas corpus is a legal instrument that allows people to denounce if they were imprisoned or detained unlawfully or illegally, for the court to consider the case, a suspension of it implies people could be imprisoned illegally without having any legal resource to denounce this situation and thus, continue in prison unfairly.
