From today's Trib:Six more TMT protesters acquitted
[i]A district court judge acquitted an additional six Thirty Meter Telescope opponents of obstruction charges after defendants argued their actions prevented a greater harm from occurring.
This particular judge has no backbone, and ability to enforce the law. The protesters were obviously breaking the law by blocking a publicly accessible roadway. I suspect she was probably afraid she could be charged with a "war crime."
