> The judge is correct in stating that if Levison doesn't trust the government, then why should the government trust Levison

The judge is incorrect. The U.S. Government was designed to not completely trust itself. That's why there are checks and balances. Giving the FBI the private key lets them have unchecked access to data encrypted with it. It is wrong to asked to not be checked.
