Color me impressed: the Judge in the Malvo case did the right thing and moved the case to another part of the Commonwealth.
"Venue should be transferred to a jurisdiction outside the Washington-Richmond corridor, where many citizens lived in fear during the month of October 2002 as a result of the crimes with which the defendant is charged," Fairfax County Circuit Judge Jane Marum Roush wrote.
It's the right decision and Judge Roush must be commended for reaching it.

And then, of course, there was the reply from learned counsel:
"Nonsense!" responded Fairfax Commonwealth's Attorney Robert F. Horan.
Who can argue with such a well grounded legal argument?
