In America, you can't be tried for the same crime twice.

Cool

Double jeopardy?
Haha, I have seen the movie with Ashley Judd & De Niro. The plot is similar to the OP’s scenario, maybe something similar would happen in court if it happened in real life? I don’t know, I’m not a legal expert. It’s very interesting though that double jeopardy can exonerate somebody.

But why was she imprisoned when there was no corpse found? This seems impossible.
In some systems where the judiciary and the police are easily bought over, there can be some abnormality in justice system, we have a lot of awaiting trials victims who are left un remind or just given a jail sentence even without proper investigation and judgment.

The woman was murdered since she shot the man, the legal way she should have handled the situation is by getting the man arrested and charged with conspiracy and attempted murder on his part.

    Friends let's do small judiciary work and legal advice this morning. A woman was accused of killing her husband, his body was never found and she was sentenced. Years after serving her jail term, she found out the man is living with another woman.

   She went and shot the man several times and he died for real this time around and she was re-arrested for the same murder on the same person.

As a judge what will you do ?
will you address the case as a fresh murder or will you consider it as a crime she already served the term? 
                         
 lawyers, your opinion is needed. Over to you
It's a fresh murder and passion crime. The sentence that she has served is the first one that's been verdict on her. If I'll be the judge, the situation is possible that she will be lessened with the verdict of years service in jail but that doesn't mean she'll not go to jail.

Justice isn't blind. The amount of money you have and your relationship with those in power influence the type of punishment you get if you have the misfortunate of getting caught for your crimes. White collar crime routinely isn't prosecuted if you have political connections to begin with, so some people never have to worry.

In America, you can't be tried for the same crime twice.

True, but if you're charged on a crime at your local state level, then the feds can still charge you for the same crime on the federal level because of dual sovereignty protection.

If it turns out that she planned to kill him after finding out he was living with someone else then it's gonna be murder. But if she killed him right after finding out he is living with another woman then that could be considered a crime of passion. the latter I guess serves justice.

But wy was she imprisoned when there was no corpse found? This seems impossible.
