I had a great experience. It was an assault with a deadly weapon case out of Douglas, MA. The judge was great and ran a very efficient courtroom. 3 white Douglas cops were looking for a white man that just crashed his car. So they did the logical thing and detained a black man singing while walking to his car. When the suspect didn’t 100% comply, they beat him. Defendant represented himself. Oh and the deadly weapon, was his hands. Judge nixed those charges before deliberating. We came back not guilty on all lesser charges with in 5 minutes. In other places I imagine this trial could have taken a week. However the efficiency of the court system had everything done in a 8 hour day.
