receive the fair patient and impartial consideration that she was entitled to and in fact she was tonight a fundamental right to a fair trial while the where the trial court was biased against defense counsel prejudge of the case deny fire the right to make a full closing argument and improperly interfered with defense cou or ability or inability on defense counsel thank you and some of the substance of the comments such as i can't stand to the way you do this it's going to make me scream i can't stand it it's just a waste of time and it's anything that we should have less than confidence in the ultimate result in the decisions in terms of fun well there are two things one i think the number and substance of the comments indicate that the trial judge in this case was so preoccupied with her agitation of defense counsel that it changed the focus from the merits of the kids and secondly the only way cynthia if i could speak in this case was through her counsel and if the trial court was that biased against defense i let me clear clarify that there are two different forms of prejudice that i'm talking about here one prejudging the merits of the case into being pretty prejudiced against defense counsel and therefore defend it and in this case when the court is is sitting this sort of hostility against defense counsel now bronzer twice but time and time again that indicates that the judge went beyond being a fair and impeached i'm sorry  point prior to that challenging we've had ability of the witnesses saying it doesn't make sense that the police officers were going to arrest that if and then they were a second or two away and the county sheriff put able to make that call argument and it indicates her further comments about police officers routinely arresting rather than the sheriff indicate that she didn't actually you're saying it shouldn't listen to what defense counsel is trying to say and certainly again it's it's natural as you say to exhibit some frustration at it throughout the course of how many trials that are that are done but there is a line between an occasional expression of frustration and eighty interruptions in the course of a relatively short bench trial and repeated the comments the comments i can't stand this you're going to make me scream don't go over these useless questions that frustrates councils ability to frame his own defense and it there they have a very clear view of how they're looking at all this i think they're trying to teach us something and certainly last week you were going to think very clear message that this court that we need to be very precise about case for the same reason that the forfeiture rule should be relaxed but the conduct of this judge was such that it denying to cynthia fire her due process rights to a fair trial as well as the right to a closing argument which is rated in the i'm sorry in the with regard to the cross examination and again the trial court here tonight counsel the right to cross examine and in fact in some instances commandeered the house and sanitation altogether saying i need to ask the question let me ask i can be demonstrated considering the fact that these same type of energy actions for me during the people's direct examinations of their witnesses he's an injections were made to clarify and facilitate prompt an orderly proceedings which is exactly a problem understanding the questions to begin with then it's at a certain point even the interpreter questions as to right the defense counsel was asking because the defense counsel's questions were so compound and convoluted it was hard even for the interpreter to understand even at a certain point defense counsel conceded that's a good question the trial court says a trial court showing that the trial court was essentially aiding  case one coming we're going defendant's guilt one comment regarding the witness is read veracity all the comments were just expressing annoyance after she repeatedly warned him she was asking improper questions and he never responded by giving a byte by changing the way that she was asking the questions this was more all the allegations of judicial bias have to be worked on in context and in specific response to the events taking place when looking at these remarks these remarks were specific response to defendant's pattern of improper questioning and were made it to maintain proper courtroom proceedings they were not showing any yes exactly with the jury with the experience they would feel that the negative opinion of the the questioning of the defense counsel really was more or less communicating a negative opinion of the  but in this case there's the presumption still stands there's nothing here in the record that shows any bias towards defendant or his or her case in regard to the closing arguments the defendant here was able to make a complete closing argument the interjections were simply the trial court's giving the defense a second chance to correct the legitimately fraud arguments that he was making oh not only were these interjections me and i when defense counsel was making their closing argument the trial could be the same type of interjections during the people's closing argument when the people made a flawed argument and as an alternative avenue for presenting a different theory that would be more sound which is actually something that would benefit that they would not have gotten had to stand in front of a tree as a benefit to help the state and child court stated i'm clear is clear i'm convinced of defendant's guilt as i can be i'm cutting off the rest of the argument this is not the case here here defend it was able to give the entire closing argument yet yes the trial court made interjections but the argument was completely coherent and there is no error here there's nothing in the record individually  and it depends on the individual facts and circumstances of each case and i think the record speaks for itself here and this wasn't balanced offense consuls interrupted far far more often than the state's attorney was in the comments at the court he did not h and impartial trial or impatient trier of fact as you put it at a trial and just to close i would just quote from stevens which i think is relevant here but cannot be measured is the impact of this kind of management of a criminal trial
