“The “war on drugs” and the DEA need to be shut down and the judge in this one needs to be burned at the stake.”
Whoa now... I’ll agree with you on your first two points. But what did the judge do wrong here? Just kill him for the heck of it, since two witnesses he had no control over were liars?
Worst possible case a judge could toss a lunatic jury verdict and the judge in this one had to do that, but the instructions to the jury were obviously not right in this one to start with. There simply can’t be a rational basis for sending anybody to prison on such a he-said/they-said basis with no other evidence and particularly when the accused has no criminal background. This one was inexcusable.
