Neither Deters nor his spokeswoman Julie Wilson would take questions about the internships.
DeWine did not respond to an email sent to him through an Ohio Supreme Court spokesman.
Triantafilou and Gerhardt did not respond to emailed requests for comment.

Tim Burke, chairman of the Hamilton County Democratic Party, expressed alarm at the temporary
hirings.

"I've got no problem with an internship program, but if it is only open to folks who are well connected
to the Republican Party and for whom the prosecutor can do favors --- particularly when he's doing
favors for judges — that's a problem," Burke says.
