Fortunately in criminal trials if the Jury can return a not guilty verdict, that’s game over for the states case. Double jeopardy they can’t retry.

Now if one guy on the Jury opposes a guilty verdict, and no verdict is reached, then the state can retry.

They could also go after him with Thompson’s family in civil suit to destroy him financially, which it turns out is not double jeopardy
