Opinion

The district judge indicated she could “continue to be fair and impartial,” yet issued a self-recusal order referring to prior recusals “due to close relationships with the victims” but was not specific regarding victims in the instant matter. I would remand this matter to the district court for the purpose of a hearing for clarification and further elaboration by the district judge seeking to be recused.

WEIMER, C.J., dissenting
