Dear Judge Strickland,
I agree with everyone's comments here, although I'm saddened to see you go after all of the work you put into this case. Your experience, your fairness, your dignity, your patience and, yes, even your sense of humor is what every judge should aspire to have. You've stepped down with dignity and selflessness which hasn't gone unnoticed ... I hope the best for you and your family.
I can't help but wonder, though, if the defense realizes what a huge mistake they've made or if they even realize that they just lost the best judge they could have hoped for ....
Best Wishes,
Den
