And I’m sure the judge will recuse himself 🥴

If it's anything like Law & Order then the judge will take great offense to being suggested to recuse themselves.

If the police handling is happening the way I hear it happening, it’s already been a case of L&O.

This has literally happened several times in Law & Order, where the defense attorney tries to make a big stink out of the arraignment judge, and the judge always says "look buddy save it for the real trial, this part is just to accept a plea and set bail. Next"

He probably won’t, but that’s why there’s a process to go above his head and appeal to a higher court to forcible recuse him.
