Yep, but he killed one guy.
I get that it is legal in the USA to have double jeopardy if you call the crime by a different name., My point is- I think it is wrong. This is my opinion.

So you think there should be one and only one charge per trial in the United States?
No, one and only conviction per crime For example you could be charged with manslaughter and muder, and the jury could return whichever they thought fit. You could also commit fraud, and also commit money laundering as separate crimes- since you dont have to launder money t o commit fraud.
But this is enough- it is turning into a hijack, start a new thread on this if you like.
You think the person who created the hijack gets the last word?
I think it doesn’t really matter.
I still wonder whether Derek Chauvin is in any way related to Nicolas Chauvin, the French soldier who gave name to chauvinism:
According to legend, French soldier Nicolas Chauvin was badly wounded in the Napoleonic Wars and received a meager pension for his injuries. After Napoleon abdicated, Chauvin maintained his fanatical Bonapartist belief in the messianic mission of Imperial France, despite the unpopularity of this view under the Bourbon Restoration. His single-minded devotion to his cause, despite neglect by his faction and harassment by its enemies, started the use of the term. The French term had originated in the early 1830s, and spread into English language slowly, arriving in the United States in 1867.
Chauvinism has extended from its original use to include fanatical devotion and undue partiality to any group or cause to which one belongs, especially when such partisanship) includes prejudice against or hostility toward outsiders or rival groups and persists even in the face of overwhelming opposition.
