Jeffrey Deskovic Takes on Judge Sonia Sotomayor

Jeff Deskovic's voice grows louder and carries further as he rails against the Supreme Court nomination of Sonia Sotomayor. You have admit, his anger at her nomination is understandable. He spent an additional six years in prison for a crime he didn't commit because Sotomayor chose procedure over justice.

Many pundits will tell you that Sotomayor's approval is likely, and that Deskovic's campaign against her is quixotic. But he has a point. And it's high time for a national discussion on the merits of having judges who seek substantive justice rather than merely enforce bureaucratic procedure.

Take a look at Deskovic making his point on this video:
