They unjustly looked into his private accounts to find his property next to the prison, which was the only way they could figure out his plan. Then even when they knew his plan the only way for them to actually stop him was to plant the bomb in his cell and barricade his exit. They may not have detonated it but they killed him with no due process. All he was trying to do was show that the legal system was flawed, and every move they made to the end proved that. His death was the final lesson making the supposed good guys murderers. The very thing that landed him in jail in the first place(killing criminals) was what they in-turn had to do to stop him.

One of my lifelong best friends has been a prosecuting attorney for over 30 years. His father, who passed away a few years ago, was a Judge. When this movie came out over a decade ago, a group of us were having dinner, Judge included, and we were laughing about this movie. In fact, we were calling my friend "Nick" as an homage. I remember his dad talking about the woman Judge in this film, and he was pretty animated about how much liberty the Hollywood writers took in portraying a Judge's behaviors. He did, however, make one tremendous mental observation from his nearly 50 years on the bench. He said (paraphrasing): "The part where she agreed with the legal precedent - that crap happens way too often." He went on to say (again, paraphrasing) "too many Judges seem to want to shock the court - they seem to want to be unpredictable, rather than being legal. They'd rather be remembered for being outrageous than for being consistent, and this is a dangerous precedent for true justice in this country." I've never been able to watch this scene the same way since.

But the judge in the film was being consistent? That's what following precedent means. If it happened before, then you continue to follow to do it again. All too often, you sometimes get judges that *don't* follow precedent because they want to be outrageous and remembered, which is very dangerous behaviour for the legal profession. When the people who make the law don't follow their own rules, then the law is a sham.

[@elevate07]

1:33 This is the critical point in this scene. Nick tells the judge that he will confess to the crime. The alleged criminal has definitively stated that he will admit that he's a criminal, he just hasn't done it yet. And rather than inquire about why the criminal is ready to confess to a crime she was just going to let him walk out the door scott free. It's one thing to maintain reasonable doubt but at this point it's clear to Clyde that the justice system is a game. The lives of those involved don't matter. And you even see him shaking his head at the absurdity of the judge's explanation for letting him go

[@Treblaine]

A promise to confess is ridiculous. A confession is a being a witness against yourself, to illustrate how ridiculous a promise of a confession is imagine if they said: "No we haven't got any witnesses who said they saw the defendant break any law, but we got one guy who says that at some point in the future he'll say IF he saw anything but for now he's giving us nothing." This is different from a witness making an official police report AND promising to testify in court.

[@hamsta11]

well.. it also misillustrates the legal principles involved here. Basically if the prosecution got lazy then either they were expecting a kangaroo court and/or Jamie Lee Fox's character was negligent and committed a form of malpractice. People misunderstand that we don't operate this way to protect criminal rights... we operate this way to not take away rights or worse, life, from an innocent person... which is something quite frankly we have failed at quite a lot. How many murderers should walk free so an innocent person is not sentenced to death? People love the idea that because he promised to confess that therefore he must be guilty because only the guilty confess. Sound like any situation anyone has ever read about where in certain other countries people seem to confess to crimes all the time without trial? Quite frankly, it is just a romanticized and dramatized scene that is inaccurate and misguided. It just looks and sounds good and stirs the appropriate human outrage and emotions. But its pointless.

[@64MilestotheGallon]

@@hamsta11 Thank you, finally someone who’s making some sense. Judges aren't omniscient gods: all they have to go off of is evidence, and a "promise to confess" is not evidence. Instead of addressing one of our judicial system's actual problems, the scene naively stabs at this contrived straw man

The revenge pretext is so flimsy, the film quickly forgets about his family for endless fascist polemic on destroying any justice system based on evidence and law rather than assumption and instinct. He's so full of shit. He said he'd have accepted the killers going completely unpunished as long as the prosecutor had "tried" when he did try and did get them punished about as well as could be done.
