She did not receive the de novo review the law required.

She didn't get the TRO in that snippet you posted, and despite the public posturing of Bill Frist, the language they passed called for nothing more than a procedural review, which they got. Ya got snookered, my friend - DeLay and Frist and Levin bamboozled you and everyone.

It is common sense to not kill someone until justice has run its course.

Not common enough for Congress to mandate relief, obviously, even though they knew - they knew - the Schindlers couldn't possibly get an injunction based on the usual standards. Look at the legislative record, and tell me Levin didn't know that damn well right from the get-go. Without mandatory relief, that bill was a worthless do-nothing piece of publicity fluff, pure and simple.

You can't be serious! The damned judge admitted that a de novo review was evident in the passed law!!!

No. It assumed a fair judgement.
