In cases where the judge has had issues with prosecutorial conduct, he has not been shy about saying so. The Stevens case is a prime example and why a lot of commentators on Fox thought he would dismiss the charge. Instead, he railed against Flynn and even asked prosecutors if they had considered other charges, based upon information in the documents that is redacted for us, but visible to him. Those believing this judge will somehow turn this around on Mueller continue to live in fantasyland.
