I thought that the sole judges that got to comment on current laws are the ones sitting in Supreme Courts, be it the federal ones of the state ones.
This guy has no say on whether a law is poorly written. He will go have a beer with this guy after he acquits him.

I've served on trial juries including a murder case. The disrespect this "judge" is showing for the victims (who he denied were victims) really bothers me.

Please, somebody tell me that "default judgement" means he will get roasted. For at least $15 Million.

"...highly unusual move..."?!

Like never ever? Usually an official of the court does this.

Just out of curiosity, do we know whether anyone else saw the number as Rittenhouse drew them or did he just look at them say it out loud? If no one else saw the numbers he could have been coached on which numbers to say. I'm sure the defense would have a jury advisor who be able to identify the most jurors most like to acquit.
