Clinton appointed judge wouldn't allow him to have a jury trial.

Says he's facing 6 months in jail. Wonder if he'd be made to do that time in his tent city.

Bullshit legal proceedings. Looks like another judge pushing their agenda instead of following the law.

The feds (under Obama) charged him with only a misdemeanor, because if they went for a felony, he could have demanded a jury trial.

I don't understand that. How do you read the 6th Amendment and not understand that in matters criminal, ALL defendants have a right to trial by jury?

Quote:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.[1]
Hell, I take speeding tickets to jury trial. This guy faces 6 months in jail and he can't get a jury trial? That right there should be grounds to have this thrown out.

Yeah, & he's already getting railroaded. I wouldn't put it past the judge to continue screwing him over.
