    "Dual Sovereignty Doctrine" obviously is Double Jeopardy

    "Dual Sovereignty Doctrine" obviously is Double Jeopardy

    At issue in the Alabama dispute was whether the "dual sovereignty doctrine" -- which allows a person to face both state and federal charges for the same offense -- violates the Fifth Amendment's Double Jeopardy Clause. On Monday, the Supreme Court ruled it does not.

    total insane bullshit

    If one is a member of both the Boy Scouts and the Girl Scouts and there is a rule that violates both codes then one gets to be prosecuted by both individually, separately or jointly.
