TTE, this event would have impaired her mental capacity to perform her job as a judge. Most of us have gone through the passing of a close one, and I was effected at work. Have seen co-workers go through the death of close relatives also, and every time I've witnessed diminished work functions and focus, even being known throughout the rest of a company that we need to "carry" that person through the event. I've seen people quit to handle such circumstances or take a leave of absence. Such an event does not happen in a vacuum and nobody can not be effected by such an event. Too bad for her, but worse to allow it to impede her job's functioning ability. Did her staff do all the heavy lifting during this trial? Did this allow her pre-case biases against big pharma to creep in? Did it put in her mind to rule for generics on her pre-case perceptions that generics save monies for the health care system? A lot of Questions should be raised after knowing this IMO. Tragic for her yes, but more tragic if it allowed a less than honest, unbiased and thorough legal ruling. Did it affect her ruling capacity? If we are questioning if it did, then I say that yes it did affect her ruling capacities. All JMO.
