And he was acquitted


If your argument was correct, it would have never gotten that far

Did you read the case you linked?

quote:

We find no merit in appellant's argument. Rather, we agree with the seventh circuit that this portion of section 3 was intended "to assure that after impeachment a trial on criminal charges is not foreclosed by the principle of double jeopardy."




*ETA: I hadn't even read that case prior to you posting it. Even double jeopardy was referenced. Oh my.

Well they charged an innocent man so their opinion is like yours: shite.

I’m not even a lawyer and my interpretation was the same as the side who won.
