Awesome. Otis Wright ftw. I've seen quite a few cases where his decisions have been excellent. I remember his decision on sanctioning the Prenda Law attorneys for their porn copyright shakedowns that was peppered with Star Trek references.

What? I'm gonna need a link to share with [email protected] lmao
Uh you follow judges?? How, or does he just pop up in the news a lot? It is the most frustrating part of voting for me because I often have to vote for judges and all these small but meaningful positions and I can search far and wide and still not able to make a more meaningful decision than flipping a coin. I hate it so if anyone knows some sources that cover conviction rates or SOMETHING. Anything.
I follow a lot of copyright law stuff and general law stuff on YouTube. So he comes up in that kind of news every so often. It helps that a friend of mine was a party that was shaken down by those Prenda Law attorneys. Basically, you torrented porn, settle for $3-5k now or we drag your name through the mud. Only it turns out they were doing a lot of fraud as well as the extortion.
But anyway he's a Federal District Court judge so he's appointed though. And my state is one where the judges aren't elected either so I don't really follow that or have any resources.
Good.
Yay!!
Blyat!

Just going to assume that this is the translation.
The FBI informant program has always been such a joke.
I'm sure there have been plenty of success stories, but any information on politicians I would consider suspicious
Which is of course part of why the information was on a form for unvetted / untrustworthy information, but the red team wanted an official form to wave around regardless of trustworthiness.
