Very disappointed in his decision not to hold the Bush administration accountable for the destruction of the CIA interrogation tapes. Now, we the citizens of the United States must wait for the lengthy and certainly biased investigation of the judicial branch, appointed of course, by the same administration who destroyed the tapes. What a shame that this judge has a spineless back and doesn't see a difference between kneeling down and bending over. Let the public be the judge when prompt justice was so close to being served.

Many thanks to a judge willing to hold this administration accountable for destroying tapes of torture that he had ordered saved.

Has a tendency to overcomplicate what seem to be straightforward issues but works hard, runs a good trial and is a pleasure to deal with.

This judge is a heavy procrastinator and will delay trial for years for little or no stated reason. After a six year delay in one trial, he showed absolutely no awareness that his interminable and unjustified continuances ruined the government's case.
