That large a cache of documents should have been arrests and arraignments within 24 hours.

Judge loose canon would not have mattered.

Look at any other government offficial who had substantial documents and they are all whisked away immediately. Maybe, he gets a forfeit your passport and 10 million in bail. But historical precedence is max security until trial.
