Isn't E the right word rather than D?
impetuously means acting or done without thought which could fit here. Also Option B means slow and laborious which doesn't exactly replicate the meaning.

I would actually go for C and E. The sentence indicates he does not deliberate carefully --> He acts quickly and without thought. B - Ponderously - is analogous to dull-witted and slow in this context, yet trusting your gut and acting based on it suggests (misguided) decisiveness. D - sententious - makes sense in terms of his position as a judge, but his personality or feeling about the criminals he is convicting would be necessary to say that this is the way he acts.

C and E are both about haste and lack of forethought. Matches best, IMO.

Most probably the answers are recorded wrong here because all the clues in the sentence indicates that the judge make the decisions quickly without any due deliberation and that's exactly what C and E mean.

IMO, C and E are correct!
