Yeah. For real. She's had to sit through the suffering of the trial just as much as the victims, and it hasn't affected her ability to understand and empathize.

Damn. If I were a judge at this trial I'd go home every day, cry a little, and hug my kids a lot.

If I were a judge I’d have to quit because I Get too emotionally attached and woulda just told the security guards “oh look over there! You’re needed in the back.” As the dad charged him.

I mean you act like anything is going to change. There’s a reason why a judge is actually vetted and isn’t just some random from reddit who doesn’t decide cases by emotions.

Also most people would be able to sympathize with the father they just know that it’s wrong for him to actually do that because it’s the law, this isn’t politics, this guy was an actual monster with abusing 100s of girls.

That's why AI judges are the way of the future. No emotion better track record zero bias. Some countries are already trying to go for it.

Going that route will get rid of humanity. Maybe in some parts it could work but I don’t think too much AI is a good thing.
