Basically, judges are getting pissed that it’s getting harder for them to lie to juries about what the law is.

Not sure its the law the judge wants people ignorant about but rather evidence. Something gets suppressed thats crucial over a technicality and they’re afraid a juror will find out. They hate when people know all the facts.

The lawyers are pissed too because trials could start being about the facts and not the strategies and showmanship of the legal teams.

"Basically, judges are getting pissed that its getting harder for them to lie to juries about what the law is." This will be remedied by the Obama regime.

No, it's getting harder for judges to insure that juries are not influenced by inadmissable evidence. How you feel if you were one of the Duke defendants and the case had gone to trial and you knew the jurors were googling the New York Times' and Rayleigh Observor's coverage of the case?

criminal trials are supposed to be unfair.
They are unfair to the prosecutors. Jurries are not supposed to be impartial.
