Is the judge supposed to be making statements like that before the verdict is in???? nt MoonRiver Feb 2014 #6

nothing about that goddamn farce is as it should be nt geek tragedy Feb 2014 #10

It seems to be setting up reasons for an appeal, should a guilty verdict be rendered. . . Journeyman Feb 2014 #20

I'm with you exboyfil Feb 2014 #22

That was my first thought as well, the judge should not comment on a verdict that is not decided Bjorn Against Feb 2014 #26

Is this the Dunn trial judge? Mz Pip Feb 2014 #9
