Why now? Do they see a better outcome politically if the case is dismissed? From their point of view a mistrial might end it. Withdrawing the charges might allow Smith to refile with a more convincing fabrication of evidence.

I’m not a lawyer but how do you have a mistrial without a trial being started? I’m sure the government can make a motion to dismiss the charges. Would be great if judge dismissed with prejudice.

And more importantly to the DOJ, a different judge presumably more friendly to their side.
