Completely biased and hypocritical. Be scared if you end up with this guy as your judge, as he is only in it for appearances. HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT HUMAN LIFE AND HAS NO REAL KNOWLEDGE BEHIND MENTAL HEALTH, BUT TALKS LIKE HE DOES. He has ruined any progress that was being made in order to fix wrongdoings, and destroyed my spirit, my heart, and any hope I have ever had or would have in the future and in the United States to make a FAIR judgement.

He made several comments that could be immediately disproved in court and several personal statements that were out of line, rude, and completely false with no background information. This man has single handedly taught me that the US gov is corrupt and to NEVER trust them. He said statements that could apply to both sides, but ignored that and re-victimized and bullied. I believe a small child could decide what is fair much better than this man.

Seems confused between federal laws and personal opinion.

Seemingly out of his depth. Hopefully he will grow into his role. Of course, he has the rest of his lifetime to do that.
