About this Episode

Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey as he welcomes Landon Dean, Democratic candidate for Henry County Sheriff, to the show.

Dean, who is currently serving in his third year as Chief of the Middletown, Indiana, Police Department, retired from the Henry County Sheriff's Department after a 27-year career, during which he held numerous roles.

Dean has also served as the interim Chief of the Knightstown, Indiana, Police Department for the past year. He helped rebuild and restaff the department and, just today, Monday, April 13, 2026, announced that he will step down from that interim position at the next Knightstown Council meeting. Dean ran for Sheriff twice, once more than twenty years ago and again in 2022, losing to the current Sheriff, John M. Sproles.

Bilbrey and Dean discuss the campaign, Dean's thoughts on Henry County's current state, and Dean's plans for the county if elected.

After the interview with candidate Landon Dean, Bilbrey then examines serious information he has been hearing from sources about the City of Muncie's Parks Department.
