I haven't had time to read all these excellent blogs about excellent articles by Prof Richard Moorhead. As the numerous judges were those who handed out the ultimate "punishment" without properly testing the evidence who will hold them to account? Isn't that their job? Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? ((Satire VI, lines 347–348). Going by the standards they have applied to innocent subjects many of them should themselves be arraigned and incarcerated shouldn't they? Oh no, sorry I didn't answer my little Latin conundrum did I? Simples, the judges do, "watch" themselves, that is. The English colloquialism is "marking your own homework". So nothing will happen to the Judges will it? Nada. Zilch! I expect the Professor has addressed this somewhere in which case I apologise.
