A lot of judges are somewhat corrupt, the difference is how much.
But make no mistake, the power/influence they yield is enormous and i would certainly restrain myself for ever doing this.
A judge ( in Belgium) stopped a documentary about his criminal doings, pledged psychological issues ( and his brother is a shrink) and is now happily drinking beers and enjoying ( forced) early retirement.
He accepted briberies from anyone to influence cases fyi. Some cases are pretty nuts too.
Oh yeah, "there was no proof of any briberies" was the result of many cases. But people who live nearby know a thing or two and there is exactly 0,0% chance that he was "clean".
Well aware of the politics. The play here was to predict the ways corruption works and use their own moves against the other side.
Obstruction of justice can already be shown to have occurred within the prosecutor's office, in a case against the judge related to her faking of a crime. Police had concluded there was no threat. That page went missing from her file but I have it from another source.
A number of my friends and acquaintances are, in fact, high-level judges. This court had no way of knowing this.
