An Argentine court declared a mistrial in the negligence case surrounding Diego Maradona's death. The ruling follows the resignation of a judge involved in a documentary about the trial. A new trial will be held with new judges selected via lottery. The case involves seven health professionals accused of culpable homicide, facing potential 25-year prison sentences. The trial, which began in March, was marked by intense media scrutiny and emotional testimonies from Maradona's family.
