But if you phrase it "She chose someone she's worked with in the past who has some experience as a court appointed monitor and has great respect for him" it doesn't sound so much like a conflict of interest, does it? When you phrase it like "it's a conflict of interest because she appointed a good buddy", without knowing whether her family and his gets together at least once a month, rather than she has lunch or dinner with him every couple of years and exchanges a few emails with him during the same period, you sound like an Apple apologist.
