There is no justification for even that much. That judge should be impeached.

To: GeronL
Impeached? For what - applying the law of the State, as it is written? The law leaves a gap (conduct that should be illegal but is not currently illegal. That is an issue that the legislature should (and, given the publicity around this case, likely will) fix. But, until the legislature acts, it's not the judiciary's job to legislate from the bench.

Again, judicial activism is a bad thing, even when we like the outcome.
