Don’t you know that Pontius Pilate was right when
he decided to appease the mob rather than
endorse justice?
The most important goal of the justice system is to maintain social peace.
If the innocent have to suffer now and then, that’s just
tough.
(sarc/off)
the judge is an elected official who WILL be up for reelection.
FL judges are also pushing to INCREASE the mandatory retirement age from 70 to 75. (IOW more senile judges)
It should be reduced or term limited at 20 years with special elections.
regardless:
Corey is playing games to try and push a plea deal. The judge is now playing into the political game.
Given the fact that evidence is now part of the court record, the judge can see for himself this is a loser case for the state.
I seriously hope there is a bond appeal.
