Comments:
This judge is an extreme reverse racist. I understand that Black people have been at a disadvantage for a long time, but for him to completely side with an ignorant, uneducated woman, SOLELY because she’s black and hand out judgment against the interracial couple she disrupted, this man should not be a judge at all! He REFUSED to see that she threatened a family in their home with a problem SHE started. His favoritism was apparent the whole time we were at the hearing and it was uncomfortable because he was very friendly to the defendant and hostile to the couple. I guess if you’re black, you’re good with this judge but if you’re any other race, I’m sorry, he WILL rule AGAINST you!

Not particularly enthused or impartial to State's Attorney's office. Open collusion in my opinion. Failed to see logic in situation that should not have been as intense in litigation as possible.
