“To anyone (including this writer) who was in Boston at the time of the attack on April 15th, 2013, and who has remained since, O’Toole’s analysis was little short of laughable. To quote Bob Dylan, “you don’t have to be a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.” It is perhaps not surprising that a judge insistent on keeping control over a high-profile, historic case proves not to be a very good weatherman. But justice should require that a judge control his ego and grant the defendant the legal relief necessary to assure a fair trial.”
