I'm aware of that. It's a complete farce that she was chosen (though they claimed they followed proper selection protocols) to preside over the case. If he doesn't see the inside of a jail cell, it's going to be one of the biggest miscarriages of justice in a long time. He's on tape ADMITTING to his crime.
