That's right it was a different judge, but he couldn't have said that without a giant fight. Are you sure?

"I have reasonable cause to believe that Mr. Westerfield is guilty" of kidnapping and murdering the 7-year-old girl, Superior Court Judge H. Ronald Domnitz ruled.


I found it. Okay, I got his *exact* words incorrect, but it's appalling he even used the word "guilty." Usually, a judge will say, "I have reasonable cause to bind (so & so) over for trial." Something more on that line, but never use the word, "guilty."
