It is absolutely correct to systematically discriminate by ‘case type’ if ‘case type’ means severity of charges. You don’t want arsonists to be granted parole as easily as jaywalkers.

You are maybe forgetting that the job of judges is judgment.



Not forgetting, just don't agree. The job of judges is justice. Presuming bias by stacking case type is not justice.


That’s not what’s happening. What do you think is happening?
