Gender's Role In The Judge Manning Case
Judge Manning’s demeanor towards the defendant was a bit shocking when looking at the crimes the defendant committed. At times the defendant began to cry or get sad, and the judge seem to show sympathy for him. He would ask him if he needed a break from standing or just to take a moment to himself. He showed concern for the defendant. When Judge Manning began reading each indictment, he made sure to pronounce each victims name correctly by asking the prosecutors did he pronounce them correctly, every time he had a hard time pronouncing foreign names. Judge Manning also out of kept informing the defendant that this would take a while and asked him to be patient several times. I’m not exactly sure if gender played a role in this case, though
