He sucks so bad, he is for the criminal.
More of the same, meaning the exidus from crime ridden Indianapolis will continue
Mears has been fine.
Between 2020 & 2022, crime rose in Indianapolis to the same extent as it rose across the country. Since 2023, crime in Indianapolis has been falling to the same extent has it has across the country. In 2025, crime in Indianapolis was below 2019 levels. No prosecutor will ever prevent Indianapolis from following broader nationwide trends.
The only difference between Mears and both his predecessor is that Mears stopped pretending as if marijuana possession is prosecuted in Indianapolis. Personal use marijuana possession has been so low on the priority listsof IMPD & the prosecutor’s office for years, well predating Mears’ tenure. And Cyndi Carrasco wouldn’t have had the resources to prosecute any meaningful number of such cases anyway.
It’s in the best interest of the FOP to discredit every part of the criminal justice system other than their own officers. That’s how government unions work. But Rick Snyder & his goons are just propagandists, trying to scare people into giving IMPD & the MCSO even more of the budget than the absurd proportion that they already have. That’s his job.

Criminals across Central Indiana are ecstatic, as are ankle monitor salesmen. .
There would be more room for criminals in the Marion County Jail if the state of Indiana would stop using county jails to house prisoners on the cheap.
One of his previous lune headed proposals was to allocate his office money and resources to pursue cases of individuals “wrongly convicted” in Marion County. Haven’t heard of any people whose “wrong convictions” have been overturned but I’m sure plenty of our tax dollars have been wasted. Can’t make this up! If I was a gang banger, dope head, or general louse I would make sure to get to the poles. Not that it will be needed, Marion County will always get on the bus with Free Smokes and Booze to cast a vote.
It’s as though you actively try to stay uninformed.

Man’s conviction overturned after IndyStar’s reporting led to new evidence
“Turner’s case stands out partly because of the unlikely allies who’d worked for years to free him. His legal team consists of former Marion County prosecutors — lawyers who spent part of their careers sending criminals to prison but believe that the agency they once served had put the wrong man behind bars.”
“Eyewitness identifications are inherently unreliable, especially when the person does not know the person they’re identifying,” said Toby Gill, a former Marion County deputy prosecutor and one of Turner’s attorneys. “This case is a perfect example of how unreliable it is … This case has shown me that there must be so many people out there that have been convicted that are innocent.”
