If Indiana is a strong home-rule state, it’s time for patriots to organize and recall this sheriff immediately. You don’t want a boot-licking, Buckwheat-worshipping traitor in your midst if the SHTF.
Indiana experienced about 90% of its history WITHOUT the homerule doctrine. I suppose they could go back to that pretty darned quick if they needed to ~ but this is a dispute between a sheriff and the county commissioners ~ they can cut his budget so bad he’ll have nothing left but his best dress skivvies.
