“I don’t know why a white woman of some means went home and an indigent Black man went back to prison. I don’t know why that happened. Maybe there’s a legitimate reason for that,” [Judge] Cook said. “But I know this: It doesn’t look good, that that man (Allen) went back to prison and Ms. Smith went home.”

“I sure don’t like the optics of it,” the judge said.

Read the terrific article by Dave O’Brien in the Lorain Chronicle-Telegram.
