Courts are fundamentally extensions of the prosecutor's office. This judge, and I do think she's good, is just handling the issue in front of her, and is making no effort to educate herself about the history or the evidence.
That changes when she is hears a case for dismissal, and not before.
She is definitely doing a good job trying to ignore the evidence in this case thus far.
Did she have her eyes closed when O'Mara showed her the picture of GZ's head injuries???
