Double jeopardy clauses in the fifth amendment make it impossible for a person to be tried of the same crime he'd been exonerated from in the past. Why do you think this is important?

    This definitely is important:

    Explanation:

    Because if the police, FBI, etc., find something else about the case where the man has already been tried for the entire case, otherwise known as the same crime, and not convicted, there is literally nothing that any of them can do because the government would be looked at as not working fast enough. BUT it is also important simply because of the fact that if you are someone who has been tried for the crime, and you weren't actually the one who did it or even simply witnessed it, they can't try you for that same crime even if they find a small smidge as to how you are involved, or if you even witnessed or HEARD it happening. Police sometimes try to convict the person who heard the crime happening simply because they don't know what else to do, or even to try to get the case closed to work on something else, because if you heard the crime happening, then it's counted as involvement in the investigation and the police could also think that it means that you're also involved in the crime itself, but don't have any other evidence as to why or how you could be the criminal in the investigation. It does happen, even if certain or lots of simply random people admit or not.
