    Sen Kennedy's question relates to criminal law.

    Nominee Kato Crews is a Magistrate selected for a District court seat and has not previously heard any criminal cases.


    "Serving as a federal magistrate judge since 2018, Crews has presided over six cases that have gone to verdict or judgment, none of which have been criminal cases, according to his Senate Judiciary Questionnaire."

    He was previously a founding partner of a small practice, where he focused on civil litigation and labor and employment law.

    “It’s certainly possible that he never saw a Brady question,” said Carl Tobias, a law professor at the University of Richmond. “It may be asking too much to expect him to be intimately familiar with that.”

    The reference to Louie was a reminder that not everyone that reaches the "dizzy heights of judge" knows everything about everything
