Popping Judges

Judge John Roll was killed by a psycho in the Tucson shooting.

Shortly after I read about a case he presided over where the author of the article figured that Judge Roll's ruling would not be overturned because that would establish that if you were unhappy with a ruling, just off the judge in question.

Did he even consider that refusing to change the ruling because the presiding judge is dead is telling a whole other camp of whackos that if they are HAPPY with a ruling then assassinating the judge will CEMENT that ruling?

I say we look at the cases on their merits and ignore the actions of the deranged.
