    Judges don’t really investigate, they rely on evidence presented by the parties in a given case. I’m not aware of any mechanism for a judge just to ‘go digging’ like he seems to suggest he wants to do. I guess he could just be a dick in future cases? I.e. issuing ridiculous discovery orders.

      Or, he kinda hands the prosecutor a blank search warrant with a signature.
