If you've been attending the trial, what's your opinion regarding the likelihood of at least one conviction? Because it sounds to us as if it's not heading that way for any of the cases...

I'm not sure CB limping into court has made the prosecution say the trial judges are biased, but there you go just an observation.

I'm puzzled as to why the prosecution should think the judge bias. Its not as if the defendant is a likable, charismatic character who has charmed her into bending the rule in his favour.

because it is easier than accepting their evidence was not up to it?

CB might well be the most obnoxious individual, that is not the issue, the issue is will the weight of evidence convict, it seems not, why it must be asked?

I don't think it has to do with the defendant but the defence team. Jmo

Perhaps they produce a better argument or interpretation of the evidence.

We have no idea really what is going on in that courtroom... too many references to other cases, imo from the defence. Could well prepare for another lawsuit, and the judges wouldn't want to seem being partial, hence the acquittal for now of the arrest warrant? Who knows!!
