Talk:Double jeopardy

English variant spelling

The article seems to be currently written in British English, although this hasn't always been the case. There was a comment about this in the archives which has some sensible points. What do people think? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:40, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

Missing: Historical origin

Notably missing from this article are the historical origins of the double jeopardy defense. It's touched upon in the UK section, but one would have to know to go there to find it, and I don't even know (what I came to the article to find out) whether the concept originated in English Common Law or if it has prior origins (or origins in other places). If someone more knowledgeable than I could write a historical origins section, it would be a definite improvement on the article. --Schoolmann (talk) 12:11, 19 April 2018 (UTC)
