Justice Michael Snow is clearly trying to avoid jury trials because he knows full well that "juries of their peers" are very likely to find the defendants "Not guilty".

Anyone here read The Dual State: A Contribution to the Theory of Dictatorship by Ernst Fraenkel?

Is this twisting of the justice system exactly the sort of thing the Nazis did to crush resistance to totalitarian fascism in Germany?

Am 26. Dezember 1898 wurde der Staatsrechtler Ernst Fraenkel geboren. Sein 1941 im amerikanischen Exil veröffentlichtes „The Dual State. A Contribution to the Theory of Dictatorship“ ist eine der ersten grundlegenden Analysen des NS-Staates, in der Fraenkel die Unterscheidung von Normenstaat und Maßnahmenstaat einführte.
