I have posted the article below because I want an answer to this question: why did the judge sto him?
Here is the excerpt:
..........................
Nobrega appeared in court Thursday and a judge stopped him from speaking when he said he was "not a citizen of this country." ..................
PORTLAND, Maine — The Portland Police Department announced Wednesday that an arrest has been made in connection with a murder that happened on Marshall Street over the weekend.
Domingus Nobrega, 48, of Portland, was arrested Tuesday at the Walmart Supercenter in Scarborough and was transported to the Cumberland County Jail, according to police.
Police said at 5:35 p.m. Saturday, officers responded to 24 Marshall St. after receiving a report about a dead person inside an apartment.
"There really hasn't been anything like this that we've seen, especially in Portland and in the West End," Portland Resident Nathan Reilly said.
The body of 43-year-old Matthew Merrick, of Portland, was found inside the apartment.
"He was always very friendly and super nice," Portland Resident Dasha Daniels said. "I'm really bummed about this."
The Chief Medical Examiner's Office in Augusta performed an autopsy on Sunday and ruled Merrick's deaths homicide.

why would a law enforcement person or “judge”
protect the criminal and prevent him/her from
speaking in court????
why must Maine protect criminals, illegals, and murderers?
Reminder:
Just south of Portland, two practicing LEGAL IMMIGRANT married anesthesiologists were knifed to death in their home by an ILLEGAL ALIEN from Africa.
Portland maine?
Boston?
Boston?
My guess is to prevent the defendant from being able to appeal his case through judicial or process error.
Pardon me, but upon glancing at the headline, I was hoping Joe Scarborough was arrested in a Walmart for murdering the English language, and being an all around Joe Schmoe.
Yes, Portland, ME. The Cumberland County Sheriff Department has declared this a ‘sanctuary county’. Judges here do not permit that truth (illegal alien) to be spoken in the court room as it might influence decisions.
This IS a crazy time.
same guy??

I lived in Portland for many years in the late 80’s. Lots of hippies and weirdos but this kind of thing was unheard of. You could walk the streets anytime of day or night without fear
1. It seems to be a a presumptive or pro-active form of Miranda rights protection that judges leap to provide for apparent foreigners who for some reason now predominate in our municipal and criminal courts, and
2. At the first hint that English is not the first language of the individual before the judge, translation services are to be summoned in that person’s native tongue, paid for, of course, by the taxpayers.
This is a bakery, not kidding, in that city:
It used to be fun to visit, but Portland, ME has changed too.
Oops, please see #12.
Yes, ME. Scarborough is just south of Portland.
This whole business of protecting criminals at all is for the birds.
Excellent!
Ah, a sovereign citizen, that helps put things in context
Appears that the defendant claims to be a “sovereign citizen “ , that is a good sign that the guy is a lunatic.
