This law is called Double Jeopardy.

Although this may seem beneficial and fair, it also has several disadvantages. The law is beneficial to innocent people, because it prevents them from being tried twice for the same crime, so they can not be acquitted and then later found guilty. However, this is also a disadvantage in some cases. In the past, there have been some court cases in which the defendant was acquitted, but later admitted to the crime. Because of the Double Jeopardy law, these people could not be found guilty and still have not received a punishment.

7) Who was Robert Gould Shaw? Robert Gould Shaw was an american officer in the union
Ket [755]

7. Robert Gould Shaw was an American officer in the Union Army during the American Civil War.

8. The Confederate Congress passed its own law in March 1863. Routine impressment calls throughout the rest of the war forced thousands of free and enslaved black men at a time into service. These men typically served terms of two to three months digging trenches or building fortifications for the Engineer Department.

9. Union Colonel Robert Gould Shaw and 272 of his troops are killed in an assault on Fort Wagner, near Charleston, South Carolina. Shaw was commander of the 54th Massachusetts Infantry, perhaps the most famous regiment of African American troops during the war.

10. Shaw's parents, however, prominent in Boston as strong abolitionists, resisted this sentiment. His father sent instructions to the officers of his son's regiment, writing, “We would not have his body removed from where it lies surrounded by his brave & devoted soldiers, if we could accomplish it by a word.
