“A simple recipe for violence: promise a lot, deliver a little. Lead people to believe they will be much better off, but let there be no dramatic improvement.” The brilliant political scientist Aaron Wildavsky wrote these words in 1968 while America was engulfed in race riots and anti-war protests.

The proposal would leave the civil courts in the City-County Building but consolidate the criminal courts and their associated agencies in one complex.
The judge with authority over Marion County court facilities isn’t convinced that a 35-acre site by Indianapolis International Airport is the best pick for the proposed criminal justice complex.

This debate is not new. A famous president of Purdue University once said that whoever raised the abortion debate was the loser.
