District Court of Appeal of Florida January 24, 2011, No. 1D09-6322 (McKinney v. State)

WETHERELL, J.

Appellant contends that his convictions and sentences for third-degree murder and fleeing or attempting to elude a law enforcement officer causing death (hereafter “fleeing or eluding”) violate the constitutional protection against double jeopardy because, even though the offenses contain different elements, he is being punished twice for the death of a single victim.
