Justices Hear Case on Double Jeopardy Clause
1 hour, 0 minuteThe Supreme Court heard oral argument in a case centering on the Fifth Amendment's Double Jeopardy clause which bans being prosecuted twice for the same crime. Damian McElrath was found not guilty by reason of insanity for a murder charge against his mother. The jury however did find him "guilty but mentally ill" for aggravated battery and felony murder. Mr. McElrath's legal team appealed to the Georgia Supreme Court arguing the verdicts are contradictory and won. All charges, the acquittal and the convictions were vacated. The prosecutor decided to refile charges. Mr. McElrath's legal team opposed, arguing it violated the double jeopardy clause, but the Georgia Supreme Court disagreed. They appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
