Judge Eric S. Geffon - Santa Clara County Superior Court, Criminal Division.
From both of us -- Mr. & Mrs. M. Glaros -- this review comes with the deepest gratitude and respect.
Judge Geffon is a man of exceptional fairness, compassion, and integrity. After decades of incarceration, one of us appeared before him via Zoom carrying a lifetime of hardship and the weight of being misunderstood. In that courtroom (even through a computer screen), Judge Geffon truly listened. He didn't just hear the case -- he heard the person.
His willingness to see the humanity, the growth, and the potential made all the difference. His decision to greatly reduce the sentence has given not only freedom, but also the gift of being believed and understood by the highest power of the law. That is something longed for over an entire lifetime, and it is something we will never forget.
Because of Judge Geffon's compassion and commitment to justice, there is now a home to return to, a life to rebuild, and hope for the future. We will always consider him a hero and an example of how justice can be both fair and deeply human.
We believe in justice because of Judge Geffon.
