The judge turned his back towards me, sitting back on his judge's chair, while I was in the witness stand being questioned. The whole courtroom was full of these anarchists, leftists, communists and Jewish lobbyists.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
From childhood on, I did sit in the courtroom watching my father argue cases and talk to juries.
As a judge, I held people accountable when they did wrong. That's why I cracked down on violent criminals and stopped the big banks when they tried to kick families out of their homes.
I really try at least to come back and answer the question as to whether that was really the best way to do that and was I really thinking straight and how did my opponents behave and how did the judges behave was needed.
When I was a young prosecutor, I got called to testify against my boss. I could have backed down, but I didn't. I stood up to him. And he fired me for it.
The courtroom is a quiet place, Judge Roberts, where you park your political ideology, and you call the balls and you call the strikes.
I was not inside the bank. But I am still not the only witness.
I had never attended a trial until my daughter's murder trial. What I witnessed in that courtroom enraged and redirected me.
While I was in jail, they handcuffed me and took me to a backroom, where a detective from the FBI and a Secret Service agent were, and they interrogated me for about three or four hours.
One minute I was a clapped-out, two-guinea, legal-aid lawyer, and the next minute I was in parliament.
I was privileged to serve as a judge.
