Just a tiny little tweet that, in fact, DOES NOT DISCUSS the case at all is considered discussing the case to this judge. Then the poor juror has to hire a lawyer and spend God knows how much preparing for this case, and he goes into the courtroom as a defendant...........
And the judge is done with him in 5 minutes.
