A judge on Tuesday recommended clearing the record of a wrongly convicted man who spent 25 years in prison for a series of sex crimes he did not commit.

A judge has disqualified a lawyer from representing a woman suing former state Sen. Gary George, saying his law firm has a potential conflict of interest.
The firm must withdraw because it employs former Attorney General Peg Lautenschlager and her deputy, who have confidential information that could be used against George, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb ruled.
She ordered Victor Arellano of Lawton & Cates to stop representing Delilah Tucker, who once worked in George's Capitol office.
Tucker is suing George and his former chief of staff Dan Rossmiller for violating her constitutional rights to free speech. She claims the two retaliated against her after she raised concerns about having to do personal and campaign work for the Milwaukee Democrat. She says she was ultimately fired and replaced by "a European beauty."
