Topic: Prejudice

Clive Doyle characterizes Judge Walter Smith Jr. as corrupt and prejudiced, citing his conduct during both the criminal and subsequent civil trials against the government. Doyle highlights the case of Livingston Fagan, a British citizen who served the longest sentence and allegedly faced systemic persecution and mistreatment within the federal prison system. The judge's rulings restricted the defense from discussing the planning of the initial ATF raid.

Clive Doyle details the jury selection process where the judge allegedly screened for "mainstream" religious beliefs to exclude sympathetic jurors. He recounts an incident where a juror expressed a guilty verdict before hearing evidence, yet the judge refused to dismiss him despite a note from other jurors.
