Ok
I didn’t ask
Tf did I ask
2 days ago? This video was posted 9 hours ago
pro trick: watch series at Flixzone. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
I thought he was gonna throw the book at her💀
I was waiting too😭😭😭
One Could Only Hope...
Me too 😭😭😭
I thought that as well.
Me too.
She didn’t change her mind. She told him the previous day she had issues with the case and he said he would get back to her. He didn’t deny that, but instead yelled “Ok, what issues do you have?” She was truthful. She wasn’t simply trying to get out of it.
both where in the wrong
@@sdfsdf2205 How was she in the wrong? I know nothing about this stuff
@@Snow-xd4rv It's a lot more complicated, however in basic terms, she didn't follow what she promised(her oath).
@@sdfsdf2205 She said she had issues under oath, and then disclosed those issues under oath the next day. Nothing dishonest there. You think that all ethical judgements can be considered under pressure? You ever make a bad decision one day and reconsider it the next? Are you perfect?
@@mneedes2 You can have issues yes, but can you separate your own views from the issue and determine what's right and wrong? If you can, you sign your oath day 1, and move onto the next stage. If you really can't you will be taken off. Yes, everyone makes mistakes, even this judge made a bigger mistake.
The title of this video should be changed; she had an actual, valid reason for not being part of the jury and the judge reacted like a child.
Click bait. They also worded it to look like the judge threw it at her.
@@JohnDoe-yq8ox From the title I assumed the juror would be charged with contempt. The only contempt is from the judge.
Non of you watched the video I see. The judge is angry because she came in the day before and swore under oath that she would be a fair and unbiased juror. She was selected for that reason. Then the next day to come back with this is actually illegal because you lied under oath. The lady is a moron and the judge should have known better then to act that way even though it was the woman's fault.
@@ejkk9513 Absolutely. Everyone in today's society has all sorts of "personal issues" that they think make them special.
@@msstcoastie uh no
She literally said she couldnt be unbiased
Bruh you dont just decide to suddenly be impartial
If you have bias you cant get rid of that
Judge: *has attitude*
Juror: *stays calm*
Judge: "I don't like your attitude!"
I swear this happens all the time
Literally how my grandfather acts a very narcissist know it all person
I hate those kind of people. Worst in the world
@@organicwins91 Really? Worse than murderers and rapists?
@@organicwins91 all judges
The judge's anger issues would put me off that jury, too.
when he said he didn't like her attitude, if she responded to the same, I wonder if he would throw her in jail. He was horrible
@@mikewall449 It's not up to the judge to challenge a juror, it's left to the prosecutor and the public defender to ask the jury how they feel about the case.
Unfortunately just because you don’t like a judge doesn’t mean you get dismissed. You’re subpoenaed to be there lol
@@GroundedSolidarity How is that funny?
@@terminat1lol as in it’s kinda funny to assume otherwise
That judge should be disbarred. Her admitting bias isn’t, “throwing out our entire criminal justice system,” it is an important and crucial aspect of it.
It is important that during jury selection that the jurors are ignorant of the case and show no bias to what the accusations are and that they will hear both sides before coming to a verdict. If the court finds that the juror already come with a verdict due to bias, it can be a mistrial. That means a new jury panel will be selected for the case. The judge can also overrule the jury if there is a guilty verdict, if the judge found the case to be inconclusive.
He made a mistake. That's an extreme punishment for a mistake.
@@terminat1 It’s also a serious mistake. It would be more accurate to say the judge should be investigated to find out whether it was a one-off or part of a pattern, and if it’s a pattern, he should be permanently removed from his judgeship.
@@terminat1 The issue is, the more respectable and honorable a position is, the higher the standards as well.
If a cashier makes a mistakes, its not a huge deal. But if the CEO makes a mistake, it can be a huge problem. People who are in higher positions of power have a responsible to perform with dignity.
As a judge, he is held to a MUCH higher standard than you or I, because he is in a position of authority that comes with a lot of honor. The rules he follows should be MUCH STRICTER than the rules you or I follow. If a judge makes a mistake of this caliber, it makes one wonder if they are reasonable enough to be a judge. I would argue this man is not fit to be a judge, and should take a role with less responsibility.
I don't think disbarred, but definitely not allowed to be a judge. He should just go work for the DA or as a defense lawyer.
Better yet, go deal with contract law.
That judge needs a vacation off the bench…permanently.
If that nurse acted like him, he would have charged her with contempt of court.
He’s clearly unstable.
She is a nurse who sees the DAMAGE done by rapists like this, and THAT DOES make her biased. She did the right thing by saying that she was biased.
The judge is SO horrifically wrong. He should have gotten 30 days to think about it. He represents a big chunk of what is wrong with the American "justice" system.
Exactly, his court room etiquette was vile, he forgot himself so much that he allowed a retrial and on top of that, spoke down to a person who rightly made it clear why they shouldn't be on the jury. That poor woman has been through enough without him almost putting her on his own personal trial. Embarrassing for such an experienced Judge.
i thought at first the judge was correct but the nurse was actually correct if she works for treatment of kids molested and abused.
I dont work with abused kids but I am really biased already and just jail the guy.
Also the general public seems to be wired towards rewarding this kind of behavior.
@@jamesdragonforce It’s scary, the number of people who cheer on an authority figure giving someone a dressing-down. There’s at least one person in the comments twisting the facts of the case to make the judge justified.
It was her responsibility to let the court know about that BEFORE she would have been selected from the pool.
Not only is this judge horrible, but because of him, an actual monster was able to get a re-trial.
Yeah, what a horrible judge. Literally throwing a temper tantrum like a spoiled brat.
Would you rather someone be convicted if they're innocent or found innocent if someone is guilty?
You can't just assume that people are guilty because of what they're accused of. There's no evidence in the video whatsoever other than the list of accusations. What if the jury invoked a guilty verdict because they were afraid of retaliation from the judge and the accused was actually innocent? If you were on trial regardless if you committed the crime or not you should hope that if there was a shred of misconduct in the court that you'd get some sort of consideration from the state to ensure due process was upheld.
Yeah--I saw the reversal coming, because of the intimidation of other jurors who now would be reluctant to voice problems.
Was he eventually found guilty? If not, you run the risk of guaranteeing the freedom of the actual monster by wanting to kneejerk believe they got the right person. Any time an innocent person goes to jail, it guarantees that no one is looking for the actual guilty party and they are free to victimize others. People tend to not think about that part. That's what cutting corners and rushing to judgement does. It puts innocent people in jail, AND it keeps criminals on the streets.
@?? she said the she said it before yesterday and he didn’t get back to her so she did
I’m astonished that the lawyers didn’t raise a ruckus there and then. If the judge is publicly berating potential jurors, it taints the entire jury selection process.
Unfortunately no one will dare challenge a judge alone and on the spot, because we’re all supposed to think they are some high exalted power. Personally, I find it very unhealthy to be expected to treat any judge like that. I may be missing something, but from what little I know and understand, that’s my opinion, and my reasoning for why no one stood up for the woman.
@@aqw4life Good point. Everybody freezes when an authority loses it like that. It would be more realistic to expect them to come back the next day with objections, or file motions overnight. A delayed reaction, but not a nonexistent one. Especially on the part of whichever side it would benefit to have the jury (and possibly the judge) thrown out.
Especially when the judge has to power to throw you in jail. Or do something to you because you spoke up.
The lawyers did speak up and asked to approach the bench and the judge said no, they could not approach.
BS. She tainted the whole case when she admitted that the jury panel was not impartial bc she has a bias. That's something you disclose long before the trial starts.
This judge is totally unprofessional, I'm glad they shifted the trial to a different judge. His remark, "I don't like your attitude," definitely reflects on him. Amazing. I've never seen a judge intimidate a juror like this.
Unprofessional is an understatement. He single-handedly got the entire trial tossed out.
Exactly. What attitude from her? It seemed like all of the attitude was from him.
narcissistic projection, he had the bad attitude!
Wouldn't forcing a potential juror to perform jury duty after they've said they can't be un-biased be throwing out the justice system?
Exactly.
The Judge made that case personal but got mad at the Nurse for knowing she was going to take the case personal. Hmm 🤨.
... kinda reminds me of the Floyd case... Another Hmmmm... lol
@@davidchildress285 😉
As an Rzn myself and as having done jury duty. I found that RN to be very short sighted and selfish. As an RN and with her experience who better to serve on on that jury.
@@trevamonteith7038 True 👍🏾
@@davidchildress285 omg, enough about that guy. Drug addict.
That judge absolutely deserved those ethics charges. I can’t blame the nurse at all for being honest about her perspective.
Honestly she should have immediately informed the clerk officer of her background, and so her personal involvement with similar cases. Informing immediately the clerk officer she would have been removed before the jury selection.
@@EM.1 I agree - but I do know that in some juristictions, that sort of information isn't always reliably recorded, or forwarded on.
She should have said something a long time ago during jury selection. Not waiting until the trial starts. Wasting everyone else's time.
So why she didn't speak up earlier?
It's BS. We all have jobs, and we've all seen bad things happen to people. It doesn't mean we are unable to be deliberately impartial when it's our turn to serve on a jury. This nurse is a scumbag trying to get off duty.
Woman: * literally does nothing
Judge: "I don't like your attitude! "
Lol, wtf.
Baiting her to go to his level. I've had this done to me in the workplace. Many people are losers and this judge is no exception
Her reasons were so legitimate, though. She was also very respectful. Shame on that Judge. Kudos to her for keeping her cool under that onslaught of disrespect.
Not only were they totally understandable, but even if they weren’t- it is what it is. Him trying to intimidate her is so backwards and damaging to the case- precisely what he’s whining about her supposedly doing. And thanks to him it ruined the guilty verdict.
I reflect on things and change my mind all the time. It’s called critical thinking.
Yeah, but there is no compromise in child harm.
this judge is a complete joke...
"i dont like your attitude"
really? she was way more respectful toward him than he was to here... cursing in the court room and everything?
very, very professional
He’s just asking if she can be fair and hear both sides of the story before making an assessment. It has nothing to do with the charge. He honestly asked if she can be fair and she said no, so removing her from the jury was the right thing to do.
@@letterslayer7814 no the judge was 100% in the right. If you can’t be fair and do what your supposed to you shouldn’t be there in the first place. She was under oath and she broke that oath. The judge had every right to be upset, I also must’ve missed the part where he was cursing
@@fishinwithnick3966 you can be upset and still be professional if he can’t keep his feelings in check then why keep an irrational judge with a short fuse?
The judge says he doesn’t like her attitude? She spoke calmly and respectful and she told him the day prior she had issues. What’s the judges problem? Power got to his head! He was behaving like a13 year old going through puberty! Ridiculous!
With so many judges you just hear "in my courtroom". The courtroom is most definitely not their property. But I think the statement "my courtroom" says a lot about these judges, namely that they believe they are all powerful and that no one is allowed to contradict them.
Could be a mixture of a lot of things. Power is definitely one of them along with an endless amount of people trying to get out of jury duty over the years for bs reasons. The ladder is a huge issue country wide. None of that excuses the judges actions of course. He ignored her when she had perfectly valid reasons for dismissal, most likely because he sees it as it's HIS courtroom and in his courtroom you are to serve no matter what. If you have legitimate reasons for dismissal to bad. Glad he got hit for his ethics violations.
The worst part is it helped get this guy an appeal due to his behavior. Honestly the judge should have spoke to her privately. Voiced yes , its disappointing she couldn't serve but she was honest. The outburst didn't help at all sadly.
Judges should be like sheriffs elected every 4 years and can be removed after 4 years if not relected.
dude thats kinda of i insulting to 13 year olds...
As a criminal defense lawyer, it is extremely important to have a fair and impartial jury. It is further extremely important that jurors are open and honest during jury selection about any potential biases and beliefs they may have that could affect their ability to be fair and impartial. A judge and the attorneys want to openly encourage jurors to be open and honest during jury selection and if jurors are discouraged from sharing biases it certainly you risk not having a fair jury trial. I have done several jury trials and have never seen anything like this from a judge.
Utterly shameful judicial misconduct.
The judge said he didn't like her attitude? He needs to look into the mirror!
Amen. You’re 💯 correct
I don't like his attitude or actions! Judge has a melt down!
Yeah, clearly projecting after having his little tantrum. He probably realized what a baby he was being and tried to deflect by saying she was the one who had an "attitude" lol What a clown!
where he messed up from the start he didn't listen to her reason why before he got all hot headed because if he would have he would have dismiss her so there wouldn't be that door for a new trial but we all have our days we only human
Imagine if she had retorted she did not like his attitude. I bet her would have tried to fine her or something.
She wasn't trying to get out of jury duty, she was literally saying that with her past as a nurse she has seen horrible things that will probably taint her thinking when it comes to that particular case. The judge would rather her sit quietly and still be biased? Good on her for actually be honest.
Seems shed have a better sence of truth in this situation
no, it’s because she provided conflicting statements under oath
@@KufLMAO Did you watch the clip? She did not.
@@KufLMAO she told him before she took an oath she was not gonna be impartial he didn't listen corrupt judge making a mockery of the justice system shameful behavior.
Then she should have said the first day. She was under oath.
She’s absolutely correct, and I applaud her for her honesty! 👏🏻
It sounds like she told him yesterday that she had issues with the case and then continued to tell him the next day that she didn’t feel like she’d be right for the jury. It’s pretty embarrassing behavior from him.
Judge acting like a baby. She spoke very respectfully.
Agreed, the judge had no reason to act like that.
Nahhh, she was being facetious and he saw it.
@@rbrowning9617 nah

What’s wrong with that judge? She was being honest ffs
Because they had obviously gotten through to the final round of jury selection, which means they have to start over. He didn’t want to have the frustration of doing it over. Doesn’t make it right. But he obviously didn’t want to have to do it again.
dude doesn’t wanna do his job
@@hc507 Kinda a poor excuse for doing the Job WE pay him for.
I’m sure this happens all the time and he’s sick of it
She wasn't necessarily being honest. People lie to get out of jury duty allll the time.
If I were a nurse who was involved with child abuse, incest and all the other thing she said, there's no way I could be impartial on a case like this, and I'm guess that this judge has the attitude that anybody who admits to any kind of issue is doing so for the sole purpose of getting out of jury duty.
This is a parallel to I used to see in my workplace. We used to have supervisors and managers who treated every employee who came to them with a question as if they were purposely "playing dumb" to get out of work.
Something tells me this judge is total tool.
After the judge goes on his rant about jury dodgers, he finally asks her what her issues were. Then when he finds out she has a legitimate reason he quickly dismisses her, but no apology just more of "his" attitude.
She was being honest. He started off biased against her since the day before.
No, she was wanting out of jury service. She is a so-called professional, and is trained in nursing ethics to be non judgmental of anyone seeking care. If she is with spit as a human, and a professional, she can be fair and impartial.
That’s just being a decent and intelligent human.

Plus he threw the us constitution around like its was a piece of trash, if hes not fired our justice system is broke
The judge seemed to have forgotten his role when he created a hostile environment.
Judges deal harshly with potential jurors behaving badly all the time.
@Veteran Decanus Maybe she did and maybe she didn't. That would depend on whether her remarks were motivated by a prejudice she couldn't control, try as she might, or by a simple desire to evade jury duty, something the judge must surely see every day of the week.
@Veteran Decanus The way I'd put it is that the judge may have been in the right, but it depends on facts we don't know.
He forgot the camera was on. 😐
He's an ahole....f*** all that, camera on, camera off 🙄 there's a code of ethics they're supposed to follow. TF.
Some judges man. I was in a Jury Selection process once, virtual due to Covid, they brought groups online, gave an intro for how it would go down and the lady giving the run down literally said "you can go in another room, go make coffee, a sandwich, use the bathroom, so long as you can hear when the court is beginning and return." Then the judge threw a hissy fit because he saw some people on their phones while waiting for the court to begin and threatened to hold everyone in contempt because he needed a jury that would "pay attention". Like...I'm sorry, I didn't know someone being in an entirely different room, making a sandwich, and nowhere near their computer meant they were paying MORE attention than being right in front of the computer on a device they put down as soon as the session started? I didn't get his logic. I honestly wonder if that case is going to go to retrial because he made everyone feel like they if they missed a single small detail or if we tried to ask a question we'd be jailed or something :/
It's amazing how judges can change the definition of 'contempt' from one day to the next.
And here ladies and gentlemen is why jury duty is BS, the legal system is a joke, and the fact that it is best to just stay out of trouble. Period.
Why do they have the absolute worst cameras in the court
Because they haven't been updated since they were installed decades ago.
Fwiw, there's worse ones in many convenience stores! Sadly!
State cameras tend to be super old.

I knew he was going to get a new trial even before they said it, but how could a nurse not be bias in a situation like that, he should be glad that she told the truth

Doing jury service was one of the most educational 2 weeks of my life
That's like saying the defendant is being charged as a cop killer. And the juror's brother is a cop. I applaud her for doing the right thing and not Jeopardizing the case.

@@ethansears4458 What? That's literally your argument. How did you lose track of your own argument? lmao
He should be thankful she was being honest BEFORE taking on jury duty. Her bias alone could throw the trial.
How
Although he "didn't like [her] attitude," the nurse was completely right. She can't be impartial if she's been traumatized by seeing child victims. She was smart enough not to get angry with the judge, too.
Imagine him being your judge. Every case he ruled on should be retried.
If the judge reallt thought the nurse was lying and manipulative, why would he fight so hard to keep her on the jury panel?
I don't think he was fighting to keep her on....at least that's not what he said. He wanted her to explain why she couldn't be impartial & why her answer changed. People complain about the justice system, but then a large portion seem to actively try to get out of jury duty.
@@sese6227 and why would you want to keep people on a jury who resent being there? As the follow up described, his actions permanently tainted every person on that jury pool. They can never again be fully impartial because they will have a negative reaction to the actions they witnessed from this judge to someone expressing concern over their ability to act as a responsible jury member. They not only had to redo the jury selection, but the entire trial because he tainted the entire jury pool to act in a way that violated their impartiality and coerced them into convicting to avoid being the target of an attack by this judge.
Because its your civic duty as a US citizen to go to jury duty and be fair based on the law, you would want someone to do the same if it was your trial. Probably just frustrated she didnt want to do really the only thing you have to do being a citizen, pretty sure he didnt want her on the jury though.
He was not going to keep her...to do so would have invited a mistrial. He was trying to make a point.
@@jpmulli And what was that? That exemplifying the necessity for jury selection is too much of an inconvenience for the judicial system?
She made a valid point! I don’t understand where he’s coming from.
The judge was worried other jurors would do the same and he wouldn't be able to get a jury. Not saying I agree with the judge just explaining since you said you didn't understand why the judge was upset.
@@alyssag.5758 The judge was out of line. Had this woman not made her biased known when she did it could have caused a mistrial had she been selected down the line. The judge was throwing a fit because he thought she was just trying to weasel out of jury duty even though she had made her concerns known the pervious day.
It looks like he just had an outburst and had to commit to it because he did not ask her why she would not be able to be impartial.
Will I don't like the judge's actions he could have been more calm. I do 100% support the judge in getting someone off a jury that was not going to be Impartial....Everyone has the right to a fair trial Everyone has the right to habeas corpus regardless of the crimes they may have commented. To go against that is to go against the Constitution of the United States.

@@OooohReally yup agree with you completely
Maybe I've been wrong, but it's always been my understanding that it's the responsibility of a potential juror to disclose any biases they have that might taint the impartiality of the trial. From the way things look to me this woman got bashed simply for doing what she was legally obligated to do. This judge should be ashamed for his behavior.
Not just that, but the lawyers ask the potential jurors dozens of questions to uncover bias. One of them is a simple, “Do you believe you have any biases for reasons we haven’t asked about?” The nurse did what the lawyers wanted her to do, what the entire selection process is designed to do. The fact that the judge forgot that means he’s not fit to be on the bench.
Happen to me too. That's the day I lost all respect for America's justice system
It varies during the selection. You can be pulled into a room and talked about for 3 hours before you can signal that you would have a bias or know someone on the case, etc. Sometimes youre not asked until the NEXT day when you show up inside the court, like in this video.
Shame, shame, shame. She was only being honest about being biased on the case because of her field of work, and the judge snapped.
For the judge, had the shoes been on the other foot for that attitude and throwing that book, that would have been a contempt of court charge
She's admitting to being biased and explaining her reasons as to why she's biased and this is how the judge reacts? How unprofessional!
As mad as he is/was there’s no way to recover once a juror literally states “I will be biased” After that, it’s over. If he goes on it’s 💯 % mistrial
He was unprofessional and rude! I feel a juror expressing that they have a bias is part of the process. I would refuse to serve on ANY trial with him as the judge!
The judge should be ashamed. He made a fool of himself. Can you imagine how he is at home? Crybaby.
The judge should be fired

I think she is more needed as a nurse than on a jury. Her reason is a fair one. I wouldn’t want to hear about child abuse and would find it terrible to have to listen to.
Sounds like she had legit reasons. He never bothered to get back to her about her issues and seems she was trying to do the right thing by mentioning it here.
Why should she have to explain herself? I would have eventually screamed my reasons and undoubtedly been arrested for contempt. Charges would later be dropped once they saw what a condescending pick this judge is.
You could tell the moment she said that she had other issues but he didn't get back to her, that he thought about backing down, but then decided now I'm going to double down on this douchebaggery.
Yes I agree, all he had to do was say, "oh that's right, my bad, I dropped the ball."
@@LisaLisa001 seriously ffs. Just say you effed up. Its ok everyone messes up lol
@@ISIIN15 Yea but when government does so they’ll just threaten or actually arrest people and turn their life upside down because they’re the heros
Exactly! There was a flicker of remembrance when she reminded him that she told him she had "issues" with the case. Instead of backing down, apologizing, or simply shutting his mouth- he decided to "double down on his douchebaggery". Actually SEEING the exact moment that he recognized he was wrong but continued to berate the juror- makes me question his decisions, ethics, and ultimately, his judgments as well
"Your Honor, I have both nightmares and daymares of providing a harmful experience for the defendant. If you would like me to serve on the Jury, it would be my honor, Your Honor."
I have a heart condition and carry an AICD and pacemaker monitor. The stress of the case and seriousness of the consequences. The fact she is in the health care profession shows how out of touch this judge is
This judge should be banned. Absolutely disgusting. The Juror was being honest.
Well this gives the saying “Throw the book at em” a whole new meaning 🤣
😂lol true
Congratulations on repeating what the video said in the first five seconds
Geez, I would’ve just let her go and picked another juror.
And this is why I will never participate in any just duty even if I am called in. I cannot, in good conscience, judge anyone.
Apart from the judge who got off the bench to go have a fist fight with the public defender in the hallway, this is the most unprofessional thing I’ve ever seen from a judge!
The judge got mad that she answered the question truthfully! If they don’t want people to say the truth then don’t ask if they can’t be bias.
Did she answer truthfully?
@@jpmulli YEAH. Why do you think she didn't?
She was honest n he ridiculed her for that...wtf!And in front of everyone. People in "power" 🤦🏽♀️
We can’t say she was honest, Since people do try to get out of Jury often.
No, what happened was he knew she was right and had to let her go like she was saying from the start, but he had pride in the way and made it like she got sent home because of her attitude 🤣🤣😂
Well he worked hard to get to that position, but I think he just got old and lost all his brain cells
@@Not-A-Content-Creator 💀😂😂
@@neilanderson7147 She wasn’t right either. She had chances to back out of it before taking her oath. Once u take that oath u are normally locked in. Unless they end up not needing u. Do u understand, U are not allowed to skip jury duty. U have to have a really good medical reason and things to excuse yourself. You can actually get jail time for it. 250$ fine and 30 days in jail. U can excuse yourself if u think u may be bias. But u need to do so before that oath.
Little man, so tensely wound up.
So ironic. Her being honest upholds the system. Him trying to hold her on the jury with her admitted bias that is understandable destroys it!
Wow!! What a hysterical jerk! She told him the day before she had issues and he failed to get back with her. Then the next day he has a hissy fit cause she brings up the issue.
Someone better check the judges' background. Just saying. To take something personal like that, he may have felt he was being judged.
"Thou protest too much"
Shakespeare.
I was thinking exactly the same.
I thought the same !
I was chosen for jury duty once when I was 6 months pregnant, in college full time and working at my dad’s practice full time. When I was asked to introduce myself during the selection process ...I said all of this ...both of the attorneys and the judge said “oh man please go home and please get some rest you’re, dismissed!” 😩🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤷🏽♀️
Judge: “I don’t like your attitude”
Me: Then why were you cussing to the juror?
A most satisfying video of the judge getting his own power reversed and his childishness revealed.
And this is why we need term limits for ALL Judges. Dude doesn't deserve to be behind a bench.
I have an idea. Let's pay that judge $15 a day and see how diligent he is at showing up for trial.
Wasn't she just being honest? As a nurse, she saw things, and thus, she feels biased against perpetrators of such things.
absolutely love how court cam keeps these people accountable. hope he enjoys the court of public opinion, hoping this video made its way to nevada
He doesn’t have a judicial temperament
I see what you did there
That doesn't make her biased, it makes her experienced and knowledgeable. It makes her more likely to know if something doesn't sound right.
This is why it's so important that everyone in the courtroom (including the judge) behaves. The defendant was able to (justifiable too) appeal their conviction.
0:50 Thanks for letting us know where the Judge was, I thought he was hanging from the ceiling like Spiderman.
I would have told the judge, “I said what I said”
Ummm… impartiality can’t be guaranteed with all potential jurors. It is kind of why jury pools are very large to begin with. Jurors are usually dismissed fairly early if they have any noticeable bias and are not reprimanded for it. In the end we’re only human.
Not wanting to be there shows prejudice. Courts have to learn to accept this.
This is literally throwing the book at someone....they should have told the Judge the term is only meant figuratively not literally.
He threw the book at the wall. Please try to pay attention.
That judge was way out of line with her.
I've seen worse
This judge acts like it’s the first time he’s ever heard of this happening. This happens literally every case
unintentionally made My science teacher throw a book in class once. 😅.
I can hear in my mind this judge chastising a defendant about the need to control their emotions.
Oh how the charges would be different if you threw something at a judge lol
that guy acting like a child would make me instantly even more biased against the justice system
Imagine throwing a temper tantrum like that as an adult.
This judge will be the reason that monster gets away free if he wins his next case
A judge telling a prospective juror, "I don't like your attitude," all the while acting like a petulant child. So, instead of doing what he should have done and dismiss the potential juror and continue with selection, he needlessly creates a situation that leads to a mistrial and additional costs to the taxpayers of the community and extended stress and heartache for the victims. This judge may very well be a good one. But, this incident demonstrates he does not possess the temperament to sit on the bench and should be removed.
He was removed back in January, he lost his reelection.
Yeah, but _he_ won at life hard enough to become a judge.
What did a juror do?
@@JoshSweetvale And you know the juror's story, how?
@@seanmcnally5560 No, no. Just saying. Relative position.
Humans gonna human, you can be completely sinless and incorruptible, if someone's got a position of power over you, _they win._
@@JoshSweetvale I have no clue what you're talking about and what you've been saying has nothing to do with my initial comment.
Oh, and stop liking your own comments. It's pathetic.
not as extreme, but almost the same thing happened to me with a judge when i went for jury selection some years back. i had actual reasons that i could not be impartial to the case and they got angrier each time i tried to explain myself. over and over the judge kept telling me i needed to be fair and respectful of the process but would let others go because they supposedly had vacation scheduled. luckily the defense attorney realized i would not be the ideal candidate as a juror and finally let me go during last round of selection.
if you cannot keep your cool during something as mundane as jury selection i have no idea how you last as a judge.
