DIAZ & SCHERER UPDATE

After a comment from “Sleepy judge” on May 20th, we’ve confirmed from multiple sources that Bobby Diaz did indeed appear to fall asleep during the trial and testimony of ex-BSO Deputy/Defendant Jorge Sobrino.

We’re working on getting audio and/or video footage that may have captured the judicial reawakening at roughly 1:36 PM on May 19th. The trial was widely covered, and CBS 4 was handling the “pooled” video feed, so we’ll be sure to follow-up.

Paraphrasing, one observer had this to say:

It was clear to everyone in the courtroom (the judge) was asleep. The clerk was tapping on the glass to wake him. He was leaning back in his chair, and no one knows how long he was out for, because it was only when the defense lawyer asked to approach that people realized the judge was out.

Fortunately for Sobrino, his lawyers Eric Schwartzreich and Michael Finesilver did not ask for a mistrial, most likely sensing that the ultimate not guilty verdict was on its way …

(Thanks again to “Sleepy judge”)

Liz Scherer, previously known for her astounding comments about Rastafari, today reportedly professed ignorance regarding Juneteenth, the federal holiday commemorating the ending of slavery in the United States.

      I think people care about Diaz. A judge falling asleep in the middle of a trial involving police misconduct!? What the heck is wrong? If he can’t handle sitting through a trial he needs to quit. If he doesn’t quit- quiver runs against him can use this as a reason to retire him.

          Absolutely! How is this not in the news!? The community would be outraged if they knew the judge was falling asleep during a POLICE MISCONDUCT case!!

              I think that things have changed. Also I think most people will care that he didn’t care about a police misconduct trial! He obviously doesn’t belong on the bench.

                  A lot of people don’t think he is “polite”. Also sleeping during a trial is not very polite.
                  Is this Judge Diaz? Lol

            I agree. Someone please let the media know a Broward Judge was seen sleeping during a trial. Bobby get away with too much and this has to stop.

          The only thing I can say about Diaz is that he’s never been the brightest bulb on the bench. I guess that’s something considering the rest of the dimwits.
          It’s time he devote himself full time to something else besides snooze time.

          But for some strange reason they are continually re-elected by a county where registered Democratic voters out number Republicans 2-1!

          EXPLAIN THAT BLM!

          BLM is just spewing propaganda. Blaming Republicans for the failures of Democrats like always.

    Maybe Diaz should focus less on extra curriculum activities and save his energy for being a Judge. Short of being able to stay awake at his publicly funded job, he should curtail his moonlighting. He’s no spring chicken afterall.

    The Fla bar shows she’s a full time paralegal for the feds. Internet shows she got PPP loans for $20k. She embezzled from her employer. The Florida Bar let this con-artist in. She stinks up the profession. Hoping the voters are smarter then the bar. She’s a strange one. Seen the videos.

    A few things come to mind.

    1 is, none of this is funny.

    2 is, how can a higher court judge handling the most complex case not be aware of a federal holiday or the significance of the one in question.

    3 is, how is a judge fit if he can’t stay awake on a major media case with highly disturbing video evidence and particularly, when the defendant is testifying.

    4 is, what will be done about concerns presented.

      Is a JQC complaint appropriate? Will anyone file it? A judge falling asleep mid trial shows he shouldn’t be presiding over cases. But sadly- I think nothing will be done. The media hasn’t even done a story on the judge sleeping in the middle of a police misconduct trial. This story would absolutely go viral. I cant believe no one has picked it up.

      1. 4

        I don’t think the Jqc will do anything. It’s not wilful bad behavior. Although thinking about it, maybe they’ll check to make sure he’s ok?

          I agree- it might not be willful- but it shows that he isn’t fit to be presiding over cases anymore. The media should really pick this up. The public should know that the judge presiding over a police misconduct case was asleep in front of the jury!
          I hope her realizes that it is time for him to retire after this.

    What about BACDL.

    Mr. Schwartzreich was a President?

    Why don’t they get Chief to move Judge Diaz to a less demanding and important area?

      At the very least- they should move him. Have him just do traffic tickets or something that isn’t as important as a police misconduct case! It’s embarrassing to the judiciary.

    1. 1

      They sent the usual letter to Chief saying how smart and handsome he is and how more stuff should be named in his honor.

      He couldn’t even show up the the event last night to give out an award. His smug face on the screen and then no-showed. How does the CJ not even show his face when all of the other judges go and mingle (because it’s part of the job!)

    How come Judge Diaz hasn’t ever been rotated? It would do him good. Is he too old or something?

    Top 5 things Judge Diaz can do in retirement.

    1. Play more video games.
    2. Help his wife run the Clerk’s Office.
    3. Kvetch about Billy Boy.
    4. Impress upon students being a Senior Judge is more important than being a County Judge.
    5. Watch money he didn’t have to blow on another contested election compound during the market recovery.
