They filed a written motion for mistrial with prejudice that is still pending a ruling by the judge.
It is a bit odd that they would open the door for a mistrial without prejudice on the same issue while that is still pending. Especially considering a mistrial without prejudice option is kind of baked in when a judge reviews a motion for a mistrial with prejudice.
What's even more odd is that the prosecution didn't immediately concede and jump on the defense's offer for a mistrial without prejudice. If I were the prosecution, I'd be all over that.
