THE ROBING ROOM

Judge Fuste gets to court on time, his docket moves quickly, great for administration. But, although speedy, justice in his courtroom is hardly even-handed. He is clearly biased in favor of the prosecution, and does what he can to make sure that no one gets acquitted, if he can help it. He is unreasonable and obstructionist where it comes to defendants' rights; he manifests a clear opinion of defendants' guilt, and will send subliminal messages to a jury whenever possible. As to his temperament: not even a civil acknowledgment of defense counsel when he encounters them in the hallway. A totalitarian, dictatorial, kangaroo-court style. The worst judge I've ever encountered.
