The Double Jeopardy Clause states “Nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.” This clause is meant to protect U.S. citizens from being tried more than once for the same offense, however, the Dual Sovereignty Exception can
override the Double Jeopardy Clause. The Vlog will cover a couple examples about the Dual Sovereignty Exception overpowering the Double Jeopardy Clause. There will also be a good example about the correct use of the Double Jeopardy Clause. I will also provide an explanation as to why the Dual Sovereignty Exception should be ruled unconstitutional.
