To answer the question, no I do not think judges need to be held responsible. They follow set rules and guidelines, they are also human and fallible like everyone else. It is their duty to interpret the law and ensure both sides get a fair trial. One can never really look into someone and know for a fact what they may or may not do in the future.
If anything I would like to see some of the original power judges once had restored. This meaning of course removal of all mandatory minimums that tie the hands of judges.

Oh my, someone else who has a clue. Sure dont see that very often.
If you dont like what a judge does from the bench, vote him/her/it out or go through the process of having him removed. Judges cant tell whats going to happen in the future any moreso than you or I.
Only in cases of (very) gross negligence should a judge be punished for the outcome after his ruling, and then only in cases where it was clear and evident that the judge ignored multiple warning signs that any ordinary person should have picked up on.
