Double jeopardy doesn't work the way it does in comics either bro. Even if Joker is found not guilty by reason of insanity for the other 99999 murders he did in Gotham, he can be charged and sentences to death for those exact same crimes in FEDERAL court as well and Double Jeopardy means absolutely nothing because Dual Sovereignty means the State and Federal governments cannot preclude one another, it would be literally unconstitutional to prevent State charges being brought against somebody just because they had already been acquitted on Federal charges and vice versa.

So even if Joker didn't do the stamp shit, and was acquitted at the state level for 99999 other murders, his adverse admissions in court (lol I'm the Einstein of crime I killed all those people lmao) can be used to execute him in FEDERAL court where Arkham's revolving door is irrelevant. Of course absolutely nobody involved in comics has any idea how the fuck the legal system actually works so you don't see the feds just give Joker the firing squad after Gotham's incompetent state courts acquit him for the 1000th time. But yeah even the "muh double jeopardy" excuse isn't how double jeopardy actually works in America, that's why with high profile shit like Luigi you see the book get thrown at them to make an example where he's being charged in New York AND Pennsylvania AND separate Federal charges with the hope at least one will stick
