It really is crazy. And I'd argue is inconsistent with the narrow exception SCOTUS has carved out for mistrials brought on by prosecutorial or judicial misconduct. Assuming a mistrial occurs here, and since this is an 5A issue, I'd litigate it in fed court which seems more favorable terrain.

I’ve got to think the defendants will try that.
