Former Mahoning County Judge Maureen Cronin will be on the other side of the bench Tuesday. She'll appear in federal court in Akron at 9 a.m..
Cronin is expected to plead guilty to charges she hid an $18,000 loan from an un-named area businessman while she was still judge.
Authorities say that same executive is also behind a loan made to former Trumbull County Commissioner Jim Tsagaris. He was sentenced last week for violating the terms of his house arrest.
