When I was fresh out of law school, I asked our local judge (Texas) to appoint me to defend some triable misdemeanors so I could get a lot of quick jury trial experience. I would argue jury nullification to the jury (albeit discretely and obtusely).
In the following two cases, I asked the prospective jurors during voir dire if they had ever known people who "needed a whipping." They all eventually told me how they knew someone who needed one LOL.
Black restaurant owner goes into a convenience store. White punk calls him the N word as he goes in. The guy ignores the punk. Punk does it again as he goes out. The restaurant asks "that's in appropriate" and the punk responds "F you N". So, guy punches him in the nose and gets charged with battery. This was a retained case. My client admitted the punch and that it wasn't self defense. Jury: not guilty.
Two 18 year olds in high school (but adults). Kid 1 keeps telling Kid 2 that "his mother is a whore" and "I fricked your mother last night" and similar garbage. Kid 2 asks Kid 1 to quit, gets a smart arse answer, and then Kid 2 punches out Kid 1. School principal testifies that Kid 1 was always getting fights but "technically never starts the fight."
The young assistant DA's close was about a minute long, stating "defendant admitted the punch and admitted it was not self-defense." I had a brief argument that the "victim" was someone who needed a whipping. Not guilty, and the forewoman asked to speak to the Court and said we all agreed that the kid provoked the altercation and "got the long overdue whipping he deserved."
I've got a case locally that I took because there may be jury nullification. Guy works his arse off as a truck driver. Then, his employer does not pay him (and other drivers also get stiffed). So, the guy texts the employer asked for his pay. No threats. But, 9-10 texts. He gets charged with "cyberstalking."

Stine's Facebook page is still up. On March 31, he posted a happy birthday post to his daughter who was going to be 17 the following day, so now you know how old she is. She is not 18.

I'm with the Sheriff. I doubt he cares that he will go to jail for the rest of his life. I wouldn't if I ended the threat.
I’ve never understood this line of thinking. You are willing to lose your family and children while you sit behind bars? Why not be there for them and let the police handle it? I would think they would need their father more than ever during times like that

Kentucky DOES have an age difference law that states 16-17 yr olds can't be frickin someone >=10 years older than they are unless married. Louisiana doesn't have that clause.
From Wikipedia again. I have not looked at actual law. Once 17 there is no age difference requirements in Louisiana as that’s LA’s legal age of consent. It does list something for 13 to 16 years of age that isn’t really worded like an an age difference requirement in a typical legal consent clause. It seems to not label it rape when one is 13 to 16 years of age and the other is 17 or older when there is consent but as a felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile offense when there is 4 years or more difference in age.

Felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile is committed when: (1) A person who is seventeen years of age or older has sexual intercourse, with consent, with a person who is thirteen years of age or older but less than seventeen years of age, when the victim is not the spouse of the offender and when the difference between the age of the victim and the age of the offender is four years or greater; or ...

From someone else's Facebook page that referenced dining with friends. Stines and the judge in the picture.

Why does the judge look like Thomas J. Sennett, if only he was stung in 2024?

I read some article that said Stines and Mullins were going to go to lunch that day (of the shooting).

If there's a sharper image of the photo above, someone could pull a date of that luncheon from the TV news screen.

why would you need jury nullification? I thought that was only if there was a crime proven but the jury acquits because they think it's too unfair to apply the law even if it fits.
What you're talking about sounds like not a crime at all?

The date the friend posted it on FB is at the top of the photo where I put it. It's over a year old.
I also read that the judge and Stines had lunch together with other court employees hours before the shooting.

Correction to my post above
The judge was married to the sister whose sister is married to the chief prosecutor and their children (according to the prosecutor quoted in the Daily Mail) are like brothers and sisters.
