Oct 20, 2021 at 14:25 comment added Chuu I'm curious, isn't having a State and Federal trial for the same crime double jeopardy? I thought there were administrative mechanisms in place to make sure this doesn't happen, if only to prevent redoing work and to allow sharing of investigative resources.
