Time played a vital role throughout the court hearing process, and lead me to ask the question “Does the judge truly care about these people or not?” Although in most cases his decisions were relatively easy ones to make, there were a couple that I thought would take a little more thought and consideration. For example, there was a particular gentleman, who was accused of choking one of his girlfriends in the street outside her car. He stood in front of the judge and was sentenced to serve his remaining 45 days in jail from his first sentence and that was the end of it. The man had already served 15 days in jail from his first sentence and now he was back to be tried for his second, facing what I thought was without question more jail time.
