It practically was. According to the jury, he was only 44% guilty. If you round down to the nearest half, that's zero.

Fuzzy math and WITCH HUNTS!

Maybe he can finally build a Trump Tower there
Putin will no longer have any use for him once he s out of office. He d have to pay for Trump Tower himself then if he was smart would nt build it beyond the first floor.

A mistrial is a term that refers to a trial that is ended before its conclusion because of some error or problem with the trial itself. A mistrial must be declared by the judge overseeing the trial, and renders the entire trial invalid. This is most likely to occur when the judge feels that the problem makes it impossible to ensure a fair verdict is reached. This allows the parties to start over again with a new trial if they want, though the circumstances may lead the parties to not request a new trial.
