I thought he was going to let her off, but then he said he’d just reduced it to 37 days. “Maaaay I ask why, you honor?” That’s when he gave me the reason.

He was a good judge, and a devout Catholic. She was a religious nut job, and I don’t think he liked the 40 days in the wilderness comparison, but there was also the 40 days of rain, and Moses spending 40 days and nights on Mt. Sinai, 40 years in the desert and on and on.
