Frank Palko thought the fifth amendment ban on double jeopardy applied to his case because he was tried twice for the same crime which is outlawed by the Constitution

Frank Palko was charged with a first degree murder in 1935, after he broke in a store to steal a phonograph, and when he was escaping the scene he shot and killed two police officers. But he was not sentenced for the charge he was taken in to court, instead he was convicted of second-degree murder and was sentence to life in prison. He was then taken to a new trial in which he was found guilty of first degree murder, and was sentenced to the death penalty.

Palko appealed this decision, as he argued that the Fifth Amendment protection against double jeopardy applied to State governments through the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The court decided that Palko's appeal did not have place, and he was executed on April 12th, 1938.

Compare and contrast auschwitz and manzanar??
tiny-mole [99]
Well that's easy. Auschwitz was a death camp, and Manzanar was an internment camp. The difference is that Auschwitz was used by the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nazis) as a eugenics machine. Eugenics is the practice of removing certain genes from the gene pool, through sterilization, or murder to create a perfect human race (Aryan). While Manzanar was used to hold 11,000 Japanese Americans during world war two who were seen as public enemies. Both Concentration camps and Internment camps were racially motivated, and both were used for public enemies. Concentration camps were far more violent, and were also politically motivated, used to remove party enemies.

They tried to do it even after world war 1 with the league of nations but that project failed as it didn't have the support of various armies from the world such as the US army. The United Nations however got even Americans on board and still exists today.
