Here is the Governor's press release announcing the appointment of Judge Stephen Six from Lawrence to fill the upcoming Attorney General vacancy. Of course, there has been lots of coverage of this story from all over the state: here, here, and here is the Topeka Capital-Journal coverage; here, and here is local coverage from the Lawrence Journal-World; here and here is coverage from the Wichita Eagle.
Six doesn't really have a lot of experience in the criminal arena, but has a very professional reputation in general. So I guess we just have to wait to see what it means for the criminal division.
Of course, Six's resignation also means that there will be an upcoming vacancy on the bench in Douglas County. So dust off those resumes Lawrence-ites! (Or is it Lawrence-inians?) Here is the press release regarding the vacancy.
[Update: here is the Lawrence Journal-World article reporting on Six' January 31 swearing-in.]
