Just Uncle Clarence being a fascist sociopath again:
Richard Glossip, the petitioner, argues that prosecutors concealed key evidence and allowed false testimony at his trial, securing a wrongful conviction.
Thomas went to bat for the prosecutors accused of misconduct, persistently defending their honor with deep empathy.
It’s really quite shocking how biased he was being. To paraphrase:
Clarence: The honor of these prosecutors is being impugned. Why weren’t these poor prosecutors given a chance to explain?
Defender: They were. We got a sworn statement from one and the other was interviewed by independent counsel.
Clarence: Okay, but an interview with these two seems central to this case so they could explain themselves.
Defender: Um… They did get a chance to explain themselves. It’s right there in the brief…
Clarence: Shouldn’t these two prosecutors, whose reputations are being impugned, get an opportunity to explain? They claim that they never had an opportunity to explain in depth.
Defender: Dude, the state attorney general commissioned a probe that interviewed both prosecutors. Just look at the fucking brief in front of you.
Clarence: Why don’t we have materials from the prosecutors other than in an amicus brief?
Defender: Just look at the papers in front of you.
Clarence: What are we to do with the point that these poor, maligned prosecutors have been frozen out of this process.
Defender: *points at the paperwork in front of Clarence’s face* Defense would like to ask the court for permission to rub the justices nose in the evidence in front of him.
Sotomayor: Clarence, did you forget your meds or something?
Okay, so maybe it wasn’t quite like that but everyone should read the article. I’m really not that far off. The whole thing is ridiculous.
So a Supreme Court Justice doesn’t listen to the arguments being presented, doesn’t read the evidence presented, and makes up his own argument that is disproven by both. The consequence for blatantly ignoring reality is…?

That was surprisingly accurate.
