Full Opinion (510 characters)

PER CURIAM.
AFFIRMED. See Escobedo v. State, 561 So.2d 429, 430 (Fla. 3d DCA 1990) (“Whatever the merits of the claim, it cannot now be considered because, when the trial judge explicitly offered the defendant a mistrial on this ground below, defense counsel just as specifically withdrew the motion. It is therefore plain that the identical contention may not now be resurrected as a basis for reversal only after the jury has returned an unwelcome verdict.”).
ORFINGER, C.J., MONACO and EVANDER, JJ., concur.
