In case there is any misunderstanding, my position is not that he is innocent. The response above was to CD saying that even IF he is innocent, he isn't fit to be judge because he was angry during the hearing.
I think that appealing to his emotions during the hearing is rather silly. I don’t see how getting sad or angry, over something that if he is correct, one should be sad and angry about, is a very good reason at all, not to conform him. It just seems resiculous. However if he had shown no emotion, I suspect that would be given as reason from some people not to confirm from some as well.
