The Pennsylvania Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday over whether former Penn State general counsel Cynthia Baldwin should be publicly censured over her conduct during the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse scandal at the university.

The Pennsylvania Office of Disciplinary Counsel claims Baldwin, who previously served as a justice on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, violated Rules 1.1, 1.7, 1.6 and 8.4 of the Rules of Professional Conduct. Specifically, the office claims Baldwin did not notify her clients of a conflict of interest with the university and that she broke attorney-client privilege when she testified before a grand jury. She represented two Penn State officials, former vice president Gary Schultz and president Graham Spanier, and athletic coach Tim Curley when they were asked to testify before a statewide grand jury.
