“A free society does not allow its government to try the same individual for the same crime until it’s happy with the result,” Gorsuch writes.

Here is the writeup on this minority decision:

They are correct, even though this is a strange pair who seldom agree on much. I find myself in agreement with them, over dual jeopardy! This is also how I understand that the Founding Fathers, who wrote it to begin with, intended it to work! The Constitution and the Bill of Rights are both restricting documents; restricting the power of the US government!

When the set this up, they intended that the government could dispense Justice, but not tyranny! The ability to continue to prosecute an innocent person is a view into tyranny, they was offensive to those who formed this Nation! No Republic can survive their own government oppression of the innocent; in the name of Justice!

What they wanted too avoid was a government that could try a citizen; and if they did NOT get the result they wanted, try the same person again for the same offense, until they finally got the conviction they wanted!

I offended both liberal and conservative Judges to support this double jeopardy decision, and I am ashamed to say that seven other judges allowed this to occur!

What is the cost to our National soul?

Second writeup on this minority decision:

This shows our national shame, allowing this legalized tyranny!

Today they brought a former Female aid up to be deposed, again; on Russian Collusion, and their entire line of questioning was sex, not job related! Since this has been found to be baseless after Years of investigation; but the liberals did not like the outcome. Ironically we now move into the tyranny of double jeopardy to try to make something from a proven nothing!

Our founding Fathers would be PISSED OFF over this feces!

I don't have time to read the articles smithlabs, what was the final decision, it wasn't clear except your ranting about feces or something.

They agreed that once tried in state court, they should not be able to be tried again in federal court for the same offence.

I agree with them.

That's what I figured but you said they lost?

Yes, sadly seven voted against them!

So citizens can be tried for the same thing twice now! Disgusting!

:)>

I thought the court had a conservative advantage now?

Yes, but there is no accounting for stupid. This ruling is stupid!

This is another scary decision.

The do not have the right to allow illegal double jeapordy!
