It's not a kangaroo court. Wiki
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kangaroo_court says a kangaroo court is " "a mock court in which the principles of law and justice are disregarded or perverted". It is essentially where the defendant has already been deemed guilty, and has little if any opportunities to object or defend himself."
This was a real court in a real courtroom in a real courthouse. [/sarcasm]
The attorney for the defense had plenty of opportunity to object. The prosecution didn't need any, as the judge announced when "that doesn't matter" even when there was not an objection by either side.
And quite seriouisly, the big problem was the judge did not want to be forced to take the necessary time to give the case a fair* hearing. His attitude was "if I find him guilty and he will not roll over and accept his punishment, the judges over in Circuit Court can have a do-over with a jury and everything. Their docket is not so full that I'm going to be here past 4 PM if everybody takes more than 10 minutes."
stay safe.
* - after yesterday's "trial" someone said that they guessed "fair" was where you went to ride the Ferris wheel and eat cotton candy, 'cause there was nothing that looked fair in the courtroom.
