Orwellian scumbag

"He is a former presiding judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.[2][3]"

Bush boy.

Walton also presided over the trial of Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff, Scooter Libby. On March 6, 2007, the jury convicted Libby of four of the five counts with which he was charged: two counts of perjury, one of obstruction of justice, and one of making false statements to federal investigators.[7] On June 5, 2007, Walton sentenced Libby to 30 months in federal prison and a fine of US$250,000, and, subsequently, he ordered that Libby report to jail without bail pending any appeals.[8]

Senior U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton ordered Mr. Goodwyn to “show cause” for why the computer monitoring provision should not be reimposed.

Odd, I was led to believe that the prosecution was required to prove guilt in a actual crime.

Here is seems everyone except the defense just assumes guilt of an un-named or un-described charge.

Starting to sound familiar...
