Every case should be different. I don't see this as an occupation where you get better with experience like fixing cars, diagnosing illnesses, or making cupcakes.

Prosecutor seems to be doing a pretty bad job considering the judge already dismissed the FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH AN EMERGENCY ORDER FROM STATE OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT charge. No idea how that didn't stick.

I have to agree with SSF on the bolded. The more experience a judge gets, that's for the better--except maybe when they get into their golden years and start forgetting.

On the other hand, they might be somewhat behind on recording technology. If they know that recording technology will determine evidence, then they ought to familiarize themselves with it ahead of time so they are not making snap, uninformed judgements about admissibility during the trial.

I am with you on the judges behavior though, especially the shouting, before cameras, and possibly within hearing of the jury. That just looks out of control, when he's supposed to be the ultimate adult in the room.
