    What appeals court is going to throw out a conviction because the judge tried to protect themselves and the prosecution from political violence instigated by the defendant?

    If their luck doesn’t hold, and they get another judge whom we know values politics over the law but hasn’t been impeached yet, they want to make sure to leave as little to interpretation as possible.
