The judge didn't really reject their request, they simply ghosted him when he told them the terms under which he would accept their request, and after 2 or 3 deadline extensions their opportunity lapsed.
In all fairness, they did whine first before ghosting.
Literally “your honor, it’s not fair”
"your guy had ample opportunity to testify during the trial."
Yeah, it’s so ridiculous. Extremely clear that he just wanted to go on one of his usual rants and didn’t want any restrictions. It’s what he tried to do when he was being examined by the prosecution. He tried to pull out and read from a paper he had in his pocket that would “explain everything” and how he did nothing wrong.
FAIR?! WHO'S THE FUCKING NIHILISTS AROUND HERE! YOU BUNCH OF FUCKING CRYBABIES?!
My little daydream is that thr judge's terms were something simple like "I want your statement beforehand so I can review it. But, you have to write it yourself, by hand. Your own hand." And he just couldn't muster up the gumption to do his own work.
"YOU'RE PICKING ON ME! MY NANNY WAS NEVER MEAN TO ME! THE WORD NO IS EMOTIONAL ABUSE! DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! BARON JOHN DONALD TRUMP, ESQUIRE, DOCTOR, AND PROFESSOR OF SELF INTEREST! YOU'RE A BUNCH OF MEANIE ASSHOLES! DON'T MAKE ME MAKE MY FRIENDS BEAT YOU UP!"
