Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia

What if the judge order the parties not to refer to hearsay evidence. The detective in the case still proceeds to say twice after judge warned DA. Would you call that manifest necessity or prosecutorial error?

What if the state has insufficient evidence and the victim himself said "no" that that's not the person who did it and the judge declares a mistrial. Should the charge be dropped and can they charge you again. What about double jeopardy?
