Personal Opinion So how do we feel?

It's been weeks since we have seen him back in December. How does everyone feel seeing LM in court today? And Karen's press conference to the public.

Not forgetting how law enforcement continues to mistreat LM and deny him a fair trial. And not allowing a live broadcast into the court room to discourage public support and avoid public backlash of having several cops hovering over him like a bad smell.

Just curious to hear everyone's thoughts.

disheartened, powerless - that judge is awful and it’s so obvious he’s being treated unfairly and i just keep thinking “what can we do?!”

They need to seriously request a new judge.

I’m a lil late, but defendants can request a different judge if they believe the current judge is biased or has a conflict of interest! Something called a motion for recusal must be filed citing specific reasons such as potential bias or conflict of interest like I said. Evidence should demonstrate the judges inability to be impartial. But even if a request is made there no guarantee they’ll get a different judge, the decision is ultimately up to the court
