U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman has been appointed to preside over the case against Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan, who was arrested for allegedly aiding an undocumented immigrant in evading arrest. The appointment follows the grand jury's indictment of Dugan early in May. President Bill Clinton appointed Adelman to the federal bench in the late 1990s after he served 20 years as a state senator.

The assignment has sparked backlash from conservative political commentators. George Washington University Law School professor Jonathan Turley responded, “The appointment of Judge Lynn Adelman to preside over the trial of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan is staggering. I previously wrote about Adelman’s injudicious and biased commentary."

I'm sure the "selection" was purely random!
