Your answer made me remember a movie with Tommy Lee Jones Can't come up with the title something with Jeopardy from the 90's I think it was.

Story:
A woman have just been released from a many years sentence for having killed her husband. It later turns out he's still alive-Well this time she kills him, but since she already been in jail for this murder, she goes free.

Edit
Just been reading a Danish article about the verdict.
I don't know how to translate an article so I just post the Danish version and i hope you know how to translate it into English
