My understanding is that there is pending, but not yet ruled upon, what in CA we would call a Motion for Directed Verdict. I’d be stunned if the judge doesn’t grant that.

I’d be stunned if the judge does grant the motion to dismiss.

Not that it would be justified, but the target for the 12 jurors (assuming acquittal) would now be directed solely at hi. It would take a lot of courage to that.

I'd be stunned if the judge does grant it. There is no way the judge is going to substitute his judgment for that of the jury in a high profile case such as this.
