County Recorder Julie Vorheis and other party big names were on the host list.<BR/><BR/>So, Ackles will not skate away freely tomorrow.<BR/><BR/>And even if he's the only candidate, he won't get my vote. He's a 14K goof.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-51496142080621457252008-02-14T22:50:00.000-05:002008-02-14T22:50:00.000-05:00The Joye Carter rumor makes sense when you think about it. Tom John just became a partner at Ice Miller. Dr. Carter was represented by Ice Miller in her contract negotiations with the Marion County Coroner's office.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-79587441967964187782008-02-14T20:48:00.000-05:002008-02-14T20:48:00.000-05:00"Dr. Pless said he would not perform autopsies for Marion County if he is elected; however, he would probably perform autopsies for other counties."<BR/><BR/>If elected, why would he perform autopsies in other counties and not in Marion County? He is an expert in the field and has trained some of the best forensic pathologists in the nation? <BR/><BR/>I would certainly love to see a debate between the renowned Dr. Pless and the seriously unqualified current office holder Quackles.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-40940197453897635262008-02-14T20:36:00.000-05:002008-02-14T20:36:00.000-05:00Dr. Pless would be an outstanding coroner and a desperately needed solution to the never ending problem that is the Marion County Coroner's Office. If a regional medical examiner's office is not an option, at minimum I would hope Dr. Pless can return the close relationship the office once had with Indiana University, where everyone can benefit: autopsies performed by solid pathologists make a prosecutor happy, and countless teaching opportunities for the medical school make administrators and students happy. <BR/><BR/>oh, and no racism either. <BR/><BR/>in the end, the community benefits the most. If i still lived in Indy Dr. Pless would have my vote!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-47112100898145824162008-02-14T20:01:00.000-05:002008-02-14T20:01:00.000-05:00I am so happy to hear that Dr. Pless is running for coroner. He is an outstanding choice to clean up the mess Dr. Ackles has created.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
