  1. These announcers should just come in…eat at St. Elmo’s like everyone else…and go back and study up for the next day’s game. Nothing good happens at 12:30 am

  2. Come on Ryan!
    “If the governor has conversations about what’s going on in Marion County, not only can he look to those stats, but he has an open invitation to come to the prosecutor’s office and not only meet with me but the people who are in the courtroom every single day fighting for those convictions,” Mears said.

    “Everybody’s quick to blame and point fingers,” he said, “(but) we need substantive responses that actually address the challenges that we’re facing and give everybody the tools and resources that they need to be successful.”

    You have tools in your bag that you never use. You talk about your conviction record in the press conference. Of course your record looks good. You resolve too many cases with a plea bargain instead of taking the case to court. Like the woman that killed two people when she was driving, claiming to have siezures and not remembering anything. Her doctors told her MULTIPLE TIMES she shouldn’t be driving. Yet she continued to drive having 5-6 accidents, killing two innocent people and you let her off on time served. YOU are part of the problem.

    1. Maybe the State should actually quit taking away the local tools that Indy has to fund the Marion County Court. Kinda hard to get lots of convictions when your Courts are understaffed and jails have limited capacity due to endless State revenue caps and big-gift-tax-breaks that Mike Braun gives to himself and his buddies.

    1. Maybe Chopper Mike isn’t spending enough time on the ground in the Capitol City. But I guess when you get to be the work from home governor in Jasper, that’s just one of the risks.

  3. While we have multiple 2-3 time murderers, carjackers, and shooters out of jail with no bail and on probation, Mears is threatening up to 6 years for Sanchez. Amazing how the politicians Grab for the microphones and press conferences when there are ‘national’ interest in our local crime news, and free publicity is at hand. If they could only act so interested with our normal criminals and acts of violence!

    1. When a hyped up and drunk 38-year old man, corners and violently assaults a 69-year old delivery truck driver for no reason except to be a jack***, a potential 6 year sentence (which I am sure Mr. Fat Cat Sanchez will never get) seems pretty lenient to me.

      And, Sanchez is a “normal” criminal–just one that is a bit wealthier than most.

    2. Which 2 to 3-time murderer in Marion County, Indiana is currently out on bail for their murder charge? I did a Google search and found zero results. Granted, there was an individual who committed murder about 10 months *after* he was released using funds from the Bail Project. HOWEVER, that bail could have been paid by anyone (it was $1500 and also partially paid by the family) and the individual did not have a previous history of violence. It’s unconstitutional to hold people indefinitely based on something they *might* do in the future.

      In other words, you fabricated BS in order to further your agenda and score more political points. You’re just as bad as the Three Stooges (Braun, Beckwith, and Morales). Unless you want to remove Miranda Rights and the Right to Due Process, there will always be some form of risk.

    3. This Sanchez case is playing out like most similar cases in Marion County.

      Potential differences here, if any, are that: 1) Everything was caught on film; 2) Victim and witnesses are cooperative. Those factors may make a difference later on in prosecution. But everything up to now is par for the course.

      You really just don’t know what you’re talking about.

    4. So is Mears soft on crime or too tough on crime? Maybe it’s time to admit that because he’s a democrat, you’ll never give him credit anyway.

    5. Pretty funny how you can seem to argue that Mears is soft on crime but then complain that he’s being too hard on someone who physically attacked another person causing serious bodily injury because they’re a celebrity!

    6. Kevin expects special treatment for Republicans and celebrities, just like their leader: Diaper Donnie.

  4. Prosecuting Sanchez appropriately because it’s in the spotlight but much harsher than he does our Marion County’s best and brightest habitual offenders.

  5. Hey, Mr. Braun – True leaders gather facts before opportunistically casting blame.
    Mr. “Christian” Beckwith – How about acknowledging your error and setting the record straight – as, perhaps, Christ would do – rather than quickly deleting your attempt to cast unfounded blame?

  6. Seems our Indiana leaders want to follow their idol, the President. Just jump dont be concderned about facts. This was a pathetic move on both who did not await facts and this looked ridiculous. Get the full story first!!!

  7. Our Governor and Lt. Governor don’t come out looking to good on this one. True to MAGA policy, they jump to erronous conclusions, cast aspersions on people who don’t deserve it, then take no responsibility for their bad behavior.
