Constitutional Connection:
5th amendment states nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb: nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law: nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
Explanation of connection:
This political cartoon tells you that in any case a person who is convicted of the same crime can’t be put in jeopardy twice of a life sentence of death sentence. This also give the right for a convicted person to keep their property, and not be taken away from them, by the supreme court judgment.
I believe that a person who done wrong all their life and was already convicted one time but proven innocent by the jury, but was convicted again and proven guilty the second time for a massacre he should be sentence to death. But what do you think should people who done something wrong again and sentence to court again do you believe they should be sentence to the same faith twice?
