SANFORD – The judge hearing the George Zimmerman case today announced that her husband works for the law firm of Mark NeJame, who’s been hired to act as a CNN analyst for this case.
Circuit Judge Jessica Recksiedler said she had an ethical obligation to disclose that and allow Zimmerman’s attorney or the special prosecutor to ask her to step down.

IOW she is daring them to recuse her. the logic goes if she disclosed then she is honest and should stay. Also if she is forced out then the judge who follows will take it out on the moving party.
supposedly.
