Judge Aileen Cannon Question

8. Asha Rangappa on this situation:

"I wouldn’t rule out the possibility that Judge Cannon is going out of her way to be as generous as possible to Trump not because she is biased, but because she is afraid that she might be threatened or endangered by Trump’s sicarios if she throws it out outright and he slams her

I wrote my thesis on Pablo Escobar’s impact on the rule of law in Colombia and spent time there in the late 90s. When law enforcement, prosecutors, and judges are under threats of violence, it’s not hard to see how legal processes and outcomes can get distorted

In Colombia it got to a point where in some courtrooms where prosecutors were trying to bring traffickers to justice, judges would have to preside behind a black curtain and use voice distorting microphones to conceal their identities. In case you’re wondering where this leads"
