It must be after the case and all appeals. It must be about process not conclusions and even more importantly he should shut up about it. People are entitled to voice their opinions in a free society. Judges are not perfect and they should not be sheltered from the opinions of learned pratitioners. They are quite capable of looking after themselves. But for Rapke to triumphantly proclaim himself as the keeper of justice for victims in the media is self seeking nonsense. It is appalling. His job is to prosecute the law. He should be struck off immediately or at least a judge might ring him and have a word to him about it.
