    Maybe this is a good thing? I’m not super familiar with american justice system but isn’t his case is mostly betting on jury acquitting or using jury nullification or at least taking him to strong settlement? Having a judge like this would definitely sway the jury in Luigi’s favor.

      It’s unlikely that Luigi’s defense will be allowed to inform the jurors about the judge’s conflict of interest
