"The court's decision was reviewed."

And every legal "expert" I've heard on this case has also said that judges do NOT like to overturn their fellow jurists decisions.

So if we have judges who are loathe to go against a fellow judges decision for fear of criticism or whatever...how do we know she got a fair shake in these reviews of the case.

Elected judges are also very timid when it comes to overturning controversial well publicized ruling for fear of their opponent using it against them in the next election.

Of course not. They are all in it for themselves. The peasants can go mind their own business. What the Lords Of The Manor says, goes.
