I used to work in criminal defense.
I've been lurking in here.

This verdict is a fucking joke, and not only should the prosecutor be disbarred, but the judge should have his head examined (or possibly be audited, because what the fuck. What. The fuck.

Mistrial without prejudice was probably the correct call, and they fucking did this.

Having any empathy at all hurts nowadays.

I don't think the prosecution should be able to decide they are losing, and then commit misconduct to trigger a mistrial without prejudice. From what I've been gathering from this topic, the judge could wait for a verdict and then grant the motion for mistrial if it was a guilty verdict (since it would be based on prosecution misconduct).
