That amendment basically states that party convicted can also be subject to criminal prosecution.
It says nothing about acquittal, which means the amendment was adopted with the framework of advising that acquittal or conviction of impeachment by Congress and the Senate have no bearing on a subsequent criminal prosecution after the impeachment process has concluded.
Exactly.
Manufacturing this impeachment-acquittal as a required step for criminal prosecution would be the biggest legislation from the bench and invention of Constitutional law since Roe v Wade.
