Double jeopardy clause applies to being charged with the same crime after being found not guilty. This does not apply when its the same charge but a different incident. The three strikes law applies when you are found guilty, Double Jeopardy applies to people who have been found innocent.

How have the 'Three Strikes Laws' affected prison populations?

The intent of the three-strikes law is, of course, to lock up repeat offenders longer, and that requires the construction and operation of more prisons. Some police and court costs may be saved in not having to deal so often with such offenders once they are locked up, but greater prison costs overwhelm such savings. ( Rand Corporation ) ---- In California, 3 strikes has made the population skyrocket. The law is written to keep repeat, violent offenders locked up. But, in California, they enforce it incorrectly. The prisons are overflowing with people whose 3rd strike was shoplifting or something equally tame. It's my understanding there's some talk of now counting some juvenile offenses as 3 strike crimes. Meaning, when the kid turns 18, he's already on his way to spend his life in prison. The people in California (and polititians) need to wake up and admit that the law of unintended consequences is pulling our prison system, in on top of itself.
