chief retired in 2017. The tapes happened before his watch, and will be ultimately decided after it. I do not trust that judge, that is for sure. I am sure the whole thing ends up in the Indiana Supreme Court and we will not know the ultimate outcome for years.

The City Council (not Buttigieg at all) is playing with fire, and may end up costing their city a far more insane amount of money than they already have.

Indiana state law contains a very strong constitutional 'fruit of the poisonous tree' doctrine, that extends the exclusionary rule to exclude most all evidence directly or derivatively obtained from illegal conduct. Those tapes would certainly prima facie appear to fall under it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
