Summary
This document is a page from the Minnesota Law Review (Vol 103, p. 904) submitted by attorney David Schoen to the House Oversight Committee. The text discusses the legal theory of 'federal redundancy' and the 'dual sovereignty' doctrine (citing Gamble v. United States), arguing that federal prosecutors serve as a check on local prosecutors in cases of police misconduct. While the text focuses on police violence and double jeopardy laws, its inclusion in this production is likely relevant to legal arguments surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's 2007 Non-Prosecution Agreement and whether federal charges could supersede state agreements.
