Maradona Death Trial: Mistrial Declared, New Judges Needed | JQJO

An Argentine court declared a mistrial in the negligence trial surrounding Diego Maradona's death. The decision follows the resignation of Judge Julieta Makintach due to controversy over her participation in a documentary about the case. A new trial with new judges will be held, delaying the proceedings which initially began in March. The trial involves seven health professionals accused of culpable homicide, facing a potential 25-year prison sentence. Maradona's daughters reacted emotionally to the mistrial announcement.
