FOIA

Public Access Laws in Indiana

Long day today. Started out rather normal, but soon evolved into something interesting. Al Jordan, a friend who runs a site for Elwood, Indiana (he calls it a 'communication network...'), said he overheard someone on the radio with the dispatcher at the Elwood Police Station say that they were looking into the legality of continuing to give him the arrest reports (we came to find out 'daily log' is a better way to say it...) Imagine that! On a Friday! Not only that, he was told that if they had to give the records to him, there would be a $3/page charge for the information.
