The judge ruled that Isaac had already been dismissed weeks before the broadcast and was therefore not entitled to natural justice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said that it is decisions like these why many people across Antigua and Barbuda do not have faith&nbsp;in the justice system, and do not want to have the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) as the country\u2019s final appellate court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c\u2026So it was personal, it was always personal, and the leaking of that report or the outright giving of&nbsp;the report to \u2018Tanny\u2019 Rose was intentional and meant to hurt me, because it hurt me.
