You have to remember that Sullivan is a "political" - a Rapin Bill judge.

He got chastized by a senior judge this year for pushing climate change propaganda to an official judicial email list.

And then there's this:

Sullivan presided over the 2008 trial of U.S. Senator Ted Stevens, who was convicted of seven felony ethics violations in October. During the trial, the judge refused requests by the defense for a mistrial to be declared, after information was revealed that the prosecution had withheld exculpatory Brady material. Eight days after the guilty verdict, Stevens narrowly lost his reelection bid.

Sullivan is a good little political lawn jockey for the Left who "finds his ethics" AFTER the political assassination is complete...

Correct. Whomever was spreading this rumor that this judge was "fiercely independent" was smoking Mary Jane.

That may be, but my law/court guys say once you plead out, it’s extremely rare that any judge lets you go back for a do-over.
