D

A ignorant can't come here
B ignorantly and with are incorrect
C & E since is incorrect, it makes the sentence look incomplete
D best among the choices

I think D is the answer.

Doesn't B mean professing to the crime ?

D should be the answer.

Can someone tell me whether it is the idiom which makes D an answer or we are using for as conjunction meaning because ?

thanks
