Seems its important to remember Judge Merchan grew up in a Third World Country; Columbia.

Some of the judges in Colombia were heroic, doing the right thing even as the Medellin Cartel was knocking them off. Perhaps it is telling that Merchan WASN'T knocked off.

He left Columbia when he was like 5 or 6 years old.
