Reading through this thread;

BREAKING: Mangione’s defense just dropped a 114-page brief, moving to dismiss the indictment and strike Trump’s DOJ’s death penalty notice.

The filing calls out political interference, illegal perp walks, prejudicial leaks, and says Trump’s DOJ is pursuing execution for political reasons, not law.

Follow as I break this down. I’m covering Mangione’s trial with a trauma informed lens.

It helps me put into context what an actual sham capitalist show trial is in contrast to Soviet Justice.

Also are all journalists in it together in a plot to ensure only flattering pictures of Luigi reach the public? I legit haven't seen a picture of him that is even remotely unflattering.

make it seem like the judiciary is not there to be objective and determine the facts

Objectivity is a myth and it's purpose is usually depoliticization. I don't necessarily say this to say a judicial system should never be independent, but I certainly wouldn't use objectivity as a reason for why it should. Separating politics from law or justice is not possible and not desirable unless deception is the goal.

Objectivity is also a very fallible standard for determining truth. Ultimately, justice must be in the context of revolution not in the context of "objectivity." There must be a political ether for justice to rest on.

I suppose I'm just very much caught up in Western justice systems that uphold objectivity as the ultimate goal of a courtroom. That state the point of a trial is to determine the facts of a case and have an objective judicial body pronounce a verdict. I'm not really familiar with other approaches that are still fair to all sides and compatible with "innocent until proven guilty", which is a principle I find extremely important.
