Judge Naughty's ex-wife told not to talk.

Interesting.. There is alot more about Nottingham's naughty acts in the Denver Players probe and his past that he doesn't want to come out. And the judge utilized the federal computer for his pleasures. This is a 2007 article in the Denver newspaper:

FBI wants silence on his alleged visits to site with porn links

By Fernando Quintero, Rocky Mountain News, August

VAIL - The ex-wife of the federal judge who
presided over the high-profile trial of former Qwest
CEO Joe Nacchio said Monday the FBI told her to
no longer comment about his possible use of his
federal computer to access a Web site with links
to porn.

The allegation against U.S. District Judge Edward
Nottingham came just days after the judge's visits
to a Denver strip club were made public when a
local TV station reported it had obtained
transcripts of his divorce proceedings.

Marcie Jaeger, who divorced Nottingham in July,
denied that she turned her divorce files over to the
station, as reported. She also denied ever talking
with Denver police about Nottingham, as was also
reported Sunday.

"I didn't talk to them. I didn't turn anything over to them," said Jaeger as she was leaving her large mountainside home near Vail to play golf and celebrate her birthday.

9News reported Thursday that divorce transcripts showed Nottingham had spent $3,000 at the Diamond Cabaret, a topless club. He issued a statement Friday that the allegations were "private and personal matters involving human frailties and foibles."

The station quoted from transcripts of the divorce proceedings, in which Nottingham said he was "ashamed and mortified" to admit the expenditures at the strip club and said he couldn't remember details of his two visits because he had had too much to drink.

9News reported that Nottingham admitted spending $150 on what he called an "Internet dating site." The station identified the Web site as -ipayfriendfinder.com, which offers links to pornography, dating and other services.

"When I asked about the dating service, he turned around in his chambers and he hit his computer and he told me all about the dating service. It was a porn site," Jaeger said in court, according to the station's report.

She gave a similar account in an interview with 9News broadcast Friday.

The station reported that the FBI had questioned Jaeger about the possible improper use of his work computer. The FBI has declined to comment.

In June, an Eagle County district judge ordered the couple's divorce proceedings sealed from the public.

Nottingham requested the file be sealed, according to the order, and Jaeger did not object.
Federal judges, who are appointed for life terms, are expected to follow a judicial code of conduct.

It reads in part: "A judge must avoid all impropriety and appearance of impropriety."

Nottingham, a federal judge, faces an allegation of improper use of a federal computer.

And more information about Nottingham:

Judge Nottingham is a member of the Judicial Conference Committee on Automation and Technology (since October 1994) and is a past committee chair (October 1997). During an 1998 interview (http://www.knowyourcourts.com/Nottingham...), he was asked several typical questions, such as "Where does your own interest in automation come from?" Here's more:

Q: "Do you have a computer in your chambers?"

A: "Yes, and I've had a home computer for about 12 years."

Also, according to the 3/19/1999 Report of the Proceedings of the Judicial Conference of the United States, the Committee for Automation and Technology was responsible for implementing several projects and policies, including the following Internet Access Policy:

"In accordance with Judicial Conference policy (JCUS-SEP 97, pp. 52-53), access to the Internet for any computer connected to the judiciary's data communications network is provided only through national gateway connections approved by the Administrative Office. The national gateways are equipped with software that is capable of blocking access to certain Internet sites.

The Committee on Automation and Technology recommended that the Conference authorize the national gateway connections to block access to adult-oriented, pornographic Web sites on the Internet, with access to these sites for individual court employees being provided for official business upon request of any judicial officer. Viewing this as a local matter, the Judicial Conference declined to approve the Committee's recommendation."
