"I promised to uphold the Constitution in a fair, even-handed and efficient manner,” Soderstrom said in a resignation letter given to local media. “I believe that I have done so. However, being human, I have also faltered.”

So she holds herself to absolutely no standard whatsoever because she's human.

She'd already made up her childish little mind about the outcome.

We need to go back to community justice; lynchings. Get rid of the judges. Way too many are low IQ and have reversed morals

from article: "showed Soderstrom texting or messaging for minutes at a time during jury selection"

it's a jury trial, which means the jury determines the outcome, not the judge.

It doesn't matter. Judges still need to be alert to ensure that protocols and procedures are being followed accurately - holy fuck why am I arguing this?

They’ll probably hire a new Jewish judge to take her place

Title: she was fired. Article: she resigned.

I was on a murder jury before, and our judge's (female) job was to make sure procedure was followed, that was about it. I noticed it looked somewhat boring for her and she rarely spoke, except at the beginning and end of each session. So not too surprising this happened.

Holy fuck that website gave me cancer.

She just faltered because she's a human guys, cmon now...

Sadly she will probably not get any punishment.
