Monday was Todd Spalding's first day in his new job and it comes with a new dress code and job expectations. In his case, that means wearing a black robe and making decisions that will impact people's lives.
Spalding is the new circuit judge in the first division of Kentucky's 11th Judicial District, which includes Green, Marion, Taylor and Washington counties.
Spalding, 48, has been an attorney for decades, but he said he's been thinking of becoming a judge for the past 10 to 12 years.
