"Cleveland Municipal Court
Governor Strickland appointed Lynn McLaughlin Murray to fill the vacancy on the Cleveland Municipal Court created by the election of Judge Kathleen Ann Keough to the 8th District Court of Appeals. Murray, a magistrate with the Cleveland Municipal Court and a former assistant director of law with the City of Cleveland Tax Division, will take the bench effective January 7, 2011."
Lynn McLaughlin Murray is a Tremont West Development Corp. board member that was sworn in today.
This raises the question: Since she was a magistrate in the Cleveland Municipal Court would it be reasonable to think that she had some pull when it came to Sammy C's sentencing?
Could a reasonable mind also be of the opinion that taking the bench poses a major conflict of interest by remaining on the TWDC Board?.
