I wasn't stating anything about the first conviction. Just subsequent allegations are more likely to be believed.

I don't know how you ensure a jury doesn't factor in his existing conviction now but I can't think of any other way to do it.
Quite.
Justice, revenge or moneygrabbing. Take your pick.

Surely if the jury were unable to reach a verdict there must be sufficient doubt to leave it at that?
If I understand correctly it's not uncommon for there to be retrials for cases where the jury couldn't return a verdict. A decision hasn't been reached.
