  1. Not saying she is wrong, but what is Robel’s role today? Does she have some position of authority the story fails to identify? All I’m seeing is a potentially retired college prof

    1. I think it’s a lawyer turning in another lawyer for not following the rules. But, turns out anyone can file such a grievance against a lawyer.

      Q: Who may file a grievance against a lawyer?
      A: Anyone. Grievances are usually filed by the lawyer’s clients, but they are also received from other lawyers, judges, or even opposing parties.

      https://www.in.gov/courts/discipline/about/

  2. Our Attorney General will never, I mean never, miss an opportunity to get more publicity for himself, even if it means he he “talks before he knows what he’s talking about.” He should be disciplined for his reckless and irresponsible words and actions to slander someone who does not share his extreme views. Only Fox News would deem his views newsworthy. A sad commentary on one elected leader and one so-called “news” organization.

    1. Thankfully it appears there will be other Republican options for Governor in ’24 that won’t regularly and obviously sacrifice official discretion for self-promotion.

  3. It’s about time someone investigated this politician pretending to be a law enforcement officer. He is an absolute disgrace to our state.

  4. If the Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission does not investigate Todd Rokita’s unethical behavior as a lawyer which has besmirched Indiana’s Office of Attorney General that would put their ethics in question.

  5. Someone needs to find out if Toad Rokita was quick to pair a fundraising effort via social media and/or direct mail with his appearance on the Fox Propaganda Channel. Such a tactic is popular and lucrative with right-wing Republicans as they con donors into thinking their rhetoric will result in a specific outcome. If it turns out Toad did in fact employ such a tactic, that too such be the subject of disciplinary action by the SCDC.

  6. Todd Rokita’s actions are outrageous. Why would anyone, much less the Indiana Attorney General, make such inflammatory statements and take premature actions before having all the facts. Why? Because he wants to keep his face in the news, front and center. Why in the news? So he can set himself up for enough recognition to run for Governor. That’s his likely end game. Think about the issues he’s “ chosen” to be in the news and you’ll see a pattern that points in that direction.

  7. On both sides of the aisle there are plenty of politicians I disagree with and would not vote for but I also understand why some people do. Then there are some politicians (again on both sides of the aisle) that I have no clue as to why people seem to like them enough to keep voting for them to positions of power.

    Rokita is at the top of the list where I am dumbfounded as to why people vote for him for any office. Forget his politics and whether you agree or disagree with him and just based on personality he has never came across as someone who would be enjoyable to sit down and have a conversation with about anything.

    Regarding this particular issue you don’t need to be pro choice to see Rokita is in the wrong here.

    Indiana is better off if he is never elected to another public position again. This guy will never amount to anything positive for the state and is nothing more than a partisan hack.
