I've had only 1 experience with this judge which wasn't a good one. Despite that, my opinion of what has happened is that the judges should be made personally accountable with their decisions. They are making the decisions that are going to affect someone and their life from that point forward. These decisions can have huge impacts on everyone that is involved. When you look at every other profession, you get penalised whether it be stood down, retrained, fined etc.. when you have done wrong or made mistakes, so why should the judges be any different, they should be made accountable for their decisions. We are talking about people that have to put their fate in the hands of someone else that only knows of them by what is written on paper in front of them and if its the wrong outcome then it's going to have a major effect on their life moving forward. In this case it was said that Mr Stratford had planned his suicide, if that had occured, his 2 children would have been the ones that would be affected the most and do you think the judge would have cared. NOT AT ALL. No amount of compensation or apologising would have been able to bring them their father back. These judges need to look at the real life aspect and not just follow the books.
He was and still is my judge because he is listed as our designated gov rep.
He's a lil bit scary. Feel free to contact me.
Happy to have chat Trina

Messy. Very messy, by the look of it.
