Roger Stone judge's bias may have jeopardized entire trial: former Democratic Party lawyer Former Democratic Party lawyer David Schoen suggested that the U.S. District Judge who sentenced former Trump associate Roger Stone to 40 months in prison may have jeopardized the trial by injecting her own personal bias into the proceedings. "You were there... yesterday," said Fox News senior judicial analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano to Schoen on Fox Nation's "Liberty File" on Friday. "You've followed the case as closely as anybody not involved in the trial." "Did you detect animosity on the part of the judge towards the person of Roger Stone?" the judge asked. "I was shocked with some of the things she said," claimed Schoen. "She was very angry. She's very smart and she knows how to make her record. But she kept on making political statements while disclaiming that this case is not at all about politics." The trial was thrown into turmoil last week after President Donald Trump tweeted about the apparent severity of the Justice Department's sentencing recommendation for Stone. The DOJ eventually lowered their sentencing recommendation and four federal prosecutors on the case resigned in protest. Then it was revealed that the Stone jury's foreperson, former Memphis City Schools Board President Tomeka Hart, had repeatedly expressed deeply negative feelings about Stone and Trump on social media. Jackson rejected requests by the Stone's defense team to delay the sentencing, though she is currently considering the defense's request for a new trial over jury misconduct claims. Schoen, a civil rights and criminal defense attorney, said that after listening to Jackson's remarks at the sentencing, he believes that she may have provided the defense with even more justification to have Stone's conviction thrown out on appeal. https://www.foxnews.com/media/roger-stone-judge-trial-amy-berman-jackson-president-trump
