CT top criminal justice commission makes appointments, including first-ever woman to major role
Three state's attorneys have been reappointed to full 8-year terms, and the first ever woman was named to serve in one of the division's three deputy chief state's attorney positions, according to judicial officials. The Connecticut Criminal Justice Commission said the reappointments to judicial districts in New Haven, Bridgeport, and Litchfield were unanimous. Each state's attorney is reappointed for an eight-year term, beginning July 1, 2025, officials said. Connecticut's state's attorneys are the chief prosecuting attorneys acting on behalf of the state in each of their respective judicial districts, according to the agency. Connecticut is one of the few states that do not elect their chief prosecutors. Because of this, the criminal justice commission is constitutionally charged with appointing all state prosecutors in Connecticut, officials said. 'The Criminal Justice Commission is confident in its reappointments today of these accomplished leaders and dedicated professionals who bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and expertise to these important positions,' Connecticut Criminal Justice Commission Chairman Andrew McDonald said. The three state's attorneys that have been reappointed to a full 8-year term include: Joseph Corradino, who has served as state's attorney for the Judicial District of Bridgeport since May 2020. He oversees prosecutions at Bridgeport Superior Court, Bridgeport Superior Court Geographical Area No. 2 and juvenile matters in Bridgeport. John Doyle, Jr., who has served as state's attorney for the Judicial District of New Haven since June 2022. He oversees prosecutions at New Haven Superior Court, New Haven Superior Court Geographical Area No. 23, Meriden Superior Court Geographical Area No. 7 and juvenile and housing matters in New Haven. David Shannon, who was appointed state's attorney for the Judicial District of Litchfield in March 2022, oversees prosecutions at Superior Court in Torrington, Torrington Superior Court Geographical Area No. 18 and juvenile matters in Torrington. On Friday, the commission also appointed Lisa D'Angelo as deputy chief state's attorney of operations for the Division of Criminal Justice. Her four year term will begin on July 1, according to officials. D'Angelo, who currently serves as an executive assistant state's attorney at the division, was appointed by a unanimous vote of the commission during a meeting Friday in Hartford, according the commission. D'Angelo is the first woman in the history of the Division of Criminal Justice appointed to serve in one of the division's three deputy chief state's attorney positions. She will succeed Deputy Chief State's Attorney Kevin Lawlor, who is retiring after more than 30 years as a state prosecutor, officials said. The deputy chief state's attorney for operations oversees specialized bureaus and units of the Office of the Chief State's Attorney that investigate and prosecute statewide issues, including public integrity violations, Medicaid fraud, workers' compensation fraud, housing and complex matters involving multiple judicial districts, according to the commission. 'On behalf of the Commission, I would like to extend my congratulations to Attorney D'Angelo on her appointment as Deputy Chief State's Attorney for Operations,' McDonald said, in a statement. 'Her work as a prosecutor, that included time as a Supervisory Assistant State's Attorney in the New Haven Judicial District, and her work as an executive management staff member within the Office of the Chief State's Attorney, particularly in the areas of ethics, training and professional standards, has positioned her well to succeed in this role.'

Baltimore County Inspector General told she will need to reapply instead of being reappointed
Baltimore County Inspector General Kelly Madigan was informed that she will not be reappointed to the position and will need to reapply during an open hiring process. In a statement shared with WJZ, Madigan said she met with County Executive Kathy Klausmeier, who told her the county would be hiring for the position and Madigan was "welcome to reapply." The decision has sparked concerns among some community leaders. Baltimore County hiring inspector general Madigan finished a five-year term as inspector general in January. According to our partners at The Baltimore Banner, she was hoping the county executive would reappoint her for a second term. "I love the job," Madigan told the Banner. "Of course, I want to stay and finish it out. I want to give Baltimore County four more years of my hard work." However, during a meeting, Klausmeier's office provided a letter indicating Madigan would not be reappointed. Under state law, the county executive has the ability to reapoint an inspector general. Baltimore County Councilman shares concern over open hiring In a letter sent to the county executive, Baltimore County Councilman Izzy Patoka shared his support for Madigan. "Ms. Madigan has done an outstanding job over her five years of leadership of the Inspector General's office," Patoka wrote. "It is very difficult to create a new office for a government entity. It is especially difficult in Ms. Madigan's case, given the nature of her mission and work program." The councilman also expressed concern about the need for Madigan to reapply for the inspector general position. "Ms. Madigan has worked hard to understand the nuances of each county agency," Patoka wrote. "I am concerned that the selection of a new inspector general would need time to gain the knowledge that Ms. Madigan has already achieved in terms of the complexity of county government." "I am urging you to suspend this open hiring process for the Baltimore County Inspector General and reappoint Ms. Madigan," he added. Baltimore City Inspector General Isabel Cumming also expressed concern over the open hiring process. "UNBELIEVABLE! Shame on Acting Balt County Executive Katherine Klausmeirer for playing politics with IG Kelly Madigan," IG Cumming said in a social media post. "The law allows the [County Executive] to reappoint her, but NO - she is making the IG reapply for her own job!" Last month, IG Madigan was named fraud fighter of the year by the Maryland chapter of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, the Baltimore Banner reported.
