Review facts? WTF has he been doing while presiding over the trial for the past 3 years?

Sullivan actually came into this case after the Trial judge recused himself without explanation, after Flynn pled guilty. Sullivan is present only for the sentencing phase. He was not present for the preliminaries, and not for any of the motions, etc, that lead up to the plea bargain. No one knows why the original judge recused himself. He just announced one day in court that he was recusing and then Sullivan was in.

“Sullivan actually came into this case after the Trial judge recused himself without explanation, after Flynn pled guilty. “

According to this article, Sullivan came in shortly after Contreras took the Flynn plea but was very active in making the decision regards sentencing.

>>>No one knows why the original judge recused himself. He just announced one day in court that he was recusing and then Sullivan was in.<<<

Maybe his chummy relationship with Strzok and Page had something to do with it?:
