PRISON BREAK
I’m spending the day at the Putnamville Correctional Facility in Greencastle. No prison jokes, please. I’ll have the full scoop of my prison stay tomorrow. Meanwhile there are a few things going on you need to know.
1. Marion County Coroner Ken Ackles is being sued for racial discrimination.
2. The townships are all going broke and are seriously taking a second look at consolidation, i.e. Perry Township.
3. A prominent Marion County Democrat recently sent out a fund raising letter saying if Republicans take over the City-County Council it will be bad for Black businesses.
4. In a public forum in Pike Township last night the Mayor put the property tax debacle mainly on the shoulders of the Township Assessors. Speaking of property taxes both Republican State Senator Luke Kenley and Democratic State Representative Bill Crawford are cautiously optimistic that Indiana’s property tax crisis will be solved by next year.
I’m scheduled to be back in town this afternoon. However, after reading all of the above, prison doesn’t seem all that bad.
