Attorney for woman accused of bribery tied to attempted murder scheme says he’ll ask for jury from outside Tippecanoe County. Meanwhile, man accused of being at center of plot asks for change of venue
Every peer-reviewed sports economics study finds that public investment in sports venues is a money loser, they never pay for themselves, no matter what politicians claim. But, Indiana politicians will happily give a huge sum of money to a family worth over $6 billion in exchange for some seats in the owners' box. What a damn scam. And the politicians who vote for it will still have the gall to claim to be small government "conservatives".
Any politician who votes for this while Indiana's roads are filled with potholes and while counties need to pass referendums to pay for schools should be run out of the state. Massive taxpayer welfare for billionaires (in this case out-of-state billionaires!) is beyond stupid, and a totally negligent waste of taxpayer money.
