The defendant is fine with it being dropped without prejudice.
And that's the problem. Normally a defendant would fight that to get a dismissal with prejudice. No sane defendant would be ok with this.
If the sane defendant knew that the original prosecution was politically based, that the perp responsible for that is now crapping his diaper in a luxury home safely away from the levers of power, and that the statute of limitation for the crime will run out before the people who lined up the original prosecution have the chance to come back into power; it may be a completely rational decision to be ok with it.
