The 5th Amendment of the US Constitution addresses Double Jeopardy. It prevents one from being prosecuted for a crime, acquitted of that crime, and being prosecuted again and again and again, for the same crime, until a conviction is obtained.
The protection from double jeopardy is over 2,355 years old and is one of the oldest legal concepts in Western civilization.

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Jeff Beck covered Don Nix‘s “Going Down.”
I always thought it was a Freddie King song. So what else did Nix do? A lot.
From Wiki: Don Nix began his career playing saxophone for the Mar-Keys, which also featured Steve Cropper, Duck Dunn and others. The [1961] hit instrumental single “Last Night” (composed by the band as a whole) was the first of many successful hits to Nix’s credit. […] The Mar-Keys evolved into Booker T. & the M.G.’s.
