OPINION
DIANA GRIBBON MOTZ, Circuit Judge:
Orlando Brad Jones petitions for a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2006), alleging that the Commonwealth of Virginia violated his Fifth Amendment rights by punishing him twice for the same offense. The deferential review of state court judgments mandated by the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (“AEDPA”) requires us to affirm the district court’s denial of habeas relief.
