Judge Reviewing Pirate Bay Trial Bias Is Removed

Posted by kdawson on from the turtles-all-the-way-up dept.

oh-my-god sends word that the Swedish judge assigned to review whether the trial judge in the Pirate Bay trial was biased has now been removed — for bias. Here's a local news account in Swedish, which Google fails to translate. We've discussed the convolutions of this case on more than one occasion.

    Unfortunately it looks like you're going to get buried when you made a legitimate point.

    What you do not understand is that here in Sweden (and other nordic area) intention counts a lot in court aswell. If you happened to follow how they acted on stuff, and what their name (just fyi The PIRATE Bay) was, I'll bet you see the intention aswell. As much as the 'nerds' here like to think, we dont follow everything 'technically' 100% but the intention counts aswell.

    You seem to the thinking of Sweden being 'bittorrent' haven because its been in news so many times. Well, now they're actually taken action about it and because of their intention, it doesnt seem good.
