The Aaron Spencer case just went nuclear. Ten days before trial, the defense has filed a motion demanding Judge Barbara Elmore recuse herself AND a second emergency petition to the Arkansas Supreme Court.
This is the same court that already smacked down Judge Elmore's unconstitutional gag order in May 2025 — with three justices explicitly calling for reassignment. The defense argues she didn't learn her lesson.
Today on Defense Diaries, criminal defense attorney Bob and Ali break down:
• The January 13 "security order" that effectively closes the courtroom to the public
• The defense attorney who was EJECTED mid-hearing for using her phone
• Missing bond records and documents that suddenly appeared after Supreme Court scrutiny
• Why Spencer's political candidacy creates new conflicts
• The extraordinary security presence — drones, multiple agencies, perimeter checkpoints — for a non-custodial defendant
• What happens if the Supreme Court intervenes AGAIN
The trial is set for January 26, 2026. The clock is ticking.
