What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorBryan Kohberger's new attorney says Latah County prosecutors dodged the key arguments in his motion to remove Judge Steven Hippler, who earlier called him the worst of the worst.

2. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA judge with an opinion. In a courtroom. I'm shocked, Hank, and by shocked I mean I'm delighted, because this will take years.

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistCan I just say, a judge should be like a clear sky, nothing leaning either way, no pressure systems at all.

   Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistHippler's got a front moving in from the bench.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe judge also questioned his honesty, which is the part the defense really dislikes.

6. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorRight, so he needs a judge who has never formed a view of anyone. I'd start the search in a cave.

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorVibes. The same rubric that got us the last press secretary.

11. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistTotally neutral, I'd check its leaves every morning, and I'd want a number on how it's feeling.

12. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAnd within a week somebody files a motion saying the plant leans toward the window, and the whole thing starts over.

13. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe window has a conflict of interest too.

14. 

    Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThe sun, Hank. The sun is clearly biased.

15. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe only neutral party in that building is the filing fee, and I'm told even that was charged unevenly.
