You literally spelled it out and are saying it’s not so. I’m gonna guess you missed the party where they’re trying him multiple times for the same crime.

He’s not being tried for the same crime multiple times. What are you confused about?
He’s being tried on both state and federal charges. They are separate crimes. This isn’t double jeopardy.
