    Wouldn’t that be double jeopardy? Or no because he wasn’t tried? Genuine question… I don’t know a lot of the details.

      I think what you’re saying is correct in terms of him not being tried. You can’t be tried for the same crime twice.

      He hasn’t been tried yet. The initial charges were dismissed before trial started. Those details were in the article.
