While the constitution specifically states if one is impeached and convicted they can still be indicted by a criminal court, the writers did not specifically address if impeached but not convicted..... why?
Maybe if there wasn't enough for the Senate to convict, the writers figured there wouldn't be enough for a court to convict. That what happens if not convicted isn't specifically addressed implies there is no further action to be had. Unless a corrupt sitting President orders a corrupt DOJ to pursue.
