There were gasps and cries in the courtroom when Judge Kirstin Hamman said, “And the judgement and sentence is vacated and the defendant is ordered to be released from custody,” before a Zoom feed broadcasting the hearing suddenly turned off.

Then show your proof they’re wrong.
They made a claim, you doof. I have no proof of the antithesis of their claim.
So they may not be wrong then.
“may” sure but it’s extremely unlikely that they’re correct
Exactly why dooming isn’t constructive. May, might be, possibly, etc. are worthless words. Without specific and actionable information, it’s just distracting noise. You don’t “possibly” incarcerate more innocents than not. You do or you don’t. Which is to say, I agree with you
Then you need proof. Otherwise you’re just guessing.
Saddling others with the effort of sourcing information they did not call into question is a typical tactic of Russian disinformation agents. As is affirming something incorrect using two separate accounts. I’m not accusing you of anything, but I am saying that you’re acting precisely like a Russian disinformation agent and I urge you to consider your behavior.
