#640 | T. Saunders (R) Candidate for Henry Co Prosecutor! & Muncie Crisis! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 21:00:00 -0400

Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey as he welcomes Tony Saunders, Republican candidate for Henry County Prosecutor, to the show.

Saunders, 48, has lived in Henry County for most of his life. He earned his J.D. from IU in Indianapolis and has practiced law in Indiana for the past 20 years.

Bilbrey and Saunders discuss the campaign, Saunders' thoughts on Henry County's current state, and his plans for the office if elected.

Connect with Saunders on social media at the following links:

https://www.facebook.com/SaundersForProsecutor . . .

THEN...

After interviewing candidate Tony Saunders, Bilbrey dives into the day's news, and there is a lot!

Two of the top Republicans at the Indiana Election Division of the Secretary of State's office submitted their letters of resignation today, citing serious criticism of the current Secretary of State, Diego Morales.

But then Bilbrey turns his attention to the City of Muncie... where he was once again right all along about the "Muncie Crisis Center!" He has a LOT to say about that breaking news! And finally, he looks more closely at the issues that have been festering for the past several days (and longer) regarding the City of Muncie's Communications Director. It's going to get wild!

#627 | 3'fer: Henry County... Madison County... & The City of Muncie! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 21:00:00 -0400

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers a lot in this 627th episode...

Starting in Henry County, Indiana, where Sheriff John M. Sproles officially announced his re-election campaign yesterday, Wednesday, March 25, 2026 — coincidentally on his wedding anniversary. Imagine that! He chose to announce it on his anniversary, even though his wife didn't want him to run again... but hey, what's one more slap in her face, right?

Sproles announced plans to speak directly to Henry County voters, unlike one of his opponents, Mr. Dandy-Randy "Tweedle-Dee" Howard the Coward. But not so fast — he also set several limits on who he would respond to and how he would respond. So, much like Howard the Coward, he’s trying to avoid real questions! Interesting!

He also made a very strange claim about Henry County being "in the best financial shape it's ever been in..." adding... "(per Councilman Shannon Thom)." What’s that all about? Bilbrey covers it all here!

Before wrapping up on Henry County politics, Bilbrey has a few final words about Randy "Tweedle-Dee" Howard's performance on the Mouthwash Talk Show on Tuesday.

Some time has passed since that trainwreck, and Bilbrey is ready to fully reflect on that mess.

Then, moving on to Madison County, Indiana, where the County Election Board met this morning, Thursday, March 26, 2026, at 10 a.m., to hear several complaints about their "bizarre clown of a candidate running for Sheriff," Jonathan Culp.

Bilbrey shares his thoughts about the meeting, which, as usual, was handled in the "Madison County Way," meaning no one in a "position of power" knew what they were doing; they really "Madison County'd" the whole thing. Bilbrey walks viewers through the meeting and shares his insights on what did and did not happen.

Finally wrapping up in Muncie, Indiana. Bilbrey discusses the brief, silent Muncie Board of Works meeting held on Wednesday, March 25, 2026, at 9 a.m. The meeting lasted just under 9 minutes and was an outright JOKE! It's just about pointless to even ask what's going on in Muncie anymore... but someone has to, so Bilbrey does! He'll cover all of that here, as well.

#617 | Mark Nicholson! / The Price of Prairie Creek in Muncie! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Sun, 08 Mar 2026 21:00:00 -0400

Episode 617 is broken up into two parts...

For part 1, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes attorney Mark Nicholson to the program. Nicholson has an interesting backstory himself, and he is currently one of the few attorneys representing clients suing Henry County Sheriff John Sproles for various wrongdoings.

Recently, Nicholson has taken on the case of the family of Nicholas Gulley II, who died on Friday, February 17, 2026, after being on life support in the ICU due to illnesses and injuries sustained while Gulley was incarcerated in Henry County Jail.

Bilbrey allows Nicholson to speak on various topics he's legally permitted to discuss. While this is Nicholson's first time as a guest, it certainly won't be the last!

#615 | Follow Up: More HCSD Jail Videos (Gulley Incident)! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Wed, 04 Mar 2026 21:00:00 -0500

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey once again offers viewers exclusive footage from inside the Henry County, Indiana Jail, taken while Nicholas Gulley II was held on the preliminary charge of criminal trespass.

This footage is hard to watch, but it MUST be seen! Transparency and accountability are crucial, and this video gives a rare look inside the Henry County Jail during a time when those in charge acted very questionably. The ongoing question has been, is, and will continue to be: "Did the use of force against Gulley reach a level of brutality, and is the Henry County Sheriff's Department guilty of gross negligence in the care NOT PROVIDED TO Gulley during the nine days he was confined?"

=========================

This is PART TWO... it continues our examination of the actions and/or inactions that contributed to Nicholas Gulley II's death!

PART ONE can be heard/viewed by clicking the following links:
Ep 612: "RIP Nicholas Gulley II & HCSD Jail Videos!"
Audio 1 Link: https://thepoliticalspotlight.fireside.fm/612 . . .
Video 1 Link: https://youtube.com/live/-2yQPSwO9Po . . .

=========================

Gulley was initially arrested and booked into Henry County Jail on Friday, January 9th, 2026, for Criminal Trespass, a Class B Misdemeanor. On the same day, he was involved in a physical altercation with four or five Henry County corrections officers. His injuries worsened over the following days.

Gulley's health declined, leading to emergency services being called nine days later, on Sunday, February 18, 2026, and he was transported to Henry County Hospital.

Due to the severity of his condition, he was airlifted by Lifeline helicopter to St. Vincent Hospital in Indianapolis, where he was placed in the intensive care unit on life support. He remained there until his passing today, Friday, February 27, 2026, at 557 p.m.

This tragic outcome represents yet another serious incident raising questions about the leadership, policies, and culture within the Henry County Sheriff’s Office under Sheriff John M. Sproles. These events add to a growing list of concerns that demand transparency, answers, and accountability.

The various videos from the jail capture key moments involving Gulley during his incarceration, offering critical insights into the circumstances surrounding his detention, subsequent medical emergency, and death.

While reporting on such heartbreaking circumstances is difficult, 'The Political Spotlight' remains dedicated to uncovering the truth. Bilbrey emphasizes his intention to thoroughly investigate this case and pursue answers on behalf of Gulley’s family and the broader community.

The team extends its deepest condolences to the family, friends, and loved ones of Nicholas Gulley II during this incredibly difficult time.

This remains an ongoing investigation, and 'The Political Spotlight' will continue providing updates, analysis, and exclusive reports as more information comes to light.

Stay informed. Stay engaged. Stay vigilant.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey has just about had all the studio moving he can handle... not to mention it's happening right in the middle of the kickoff of the 2026 Election Season, as well as during what is shaping up to be a busier-than-usual "end-of-winter period," politically speaking!

It's all just a bit too much! And that's why this 610th episode is a "free association" show. A Monday-Funday (Free-for-All Chat)! But don't worry, Bilbrey will cover a few political and governmental odds and ends!

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 21:00:00 -0500

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey reviews the agenda and action items for the upcoming March 2, 2026, Muncie City Council meeting. Although it appears to be a light meeting, with only two new ordinances and two resolutions, it could, once again, be an interesting meeting because of the continued stalemate between the public and Council President Jeff Green over the so-called "Council Rules," as well as an interesting Ordinance and Resolution. Time will tell!

Then, as he winds down the last show of the week, Bilbrey explains the contest viewers will have a chance to participate in next week. If you're interested, watch until the end!

#601 | Change of Plans: We’ll Talk Filings Next Week & Sproles Now! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Fri, 06 Feb 2026 21:00:00 -0500

Join Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey for this special Friday night episode. The show was intended to explore the various filings for political office across the State of Indiana; however, an earlier snag made that impossible.

That said, Henry County Sheriff John Sproles never fails to offer himself as fodder for the show! Therefore, Bilbrey will cover the latest "Official Statement" from Sheriff Sproles and share his thoughts on it. Bilbrey also has a few other bits and pieces to toss out for the viewers' consumption.

While this won't be the show that was originally planned, it will definitely be one to watch!

#588 | Sheriff Sproles Offers a Statement on Questionable Traffic Stop! | The Political Spotlight

Kristopher H. Bilbrey, Brandon Rudd, & Kate Thornburg (The Political Spotlight) — Tue, 13 Jan 2026 21:00:00 -0500

It's official! We are under the first "Sproles Watch" of the new year!

(#SprolesWatch2026 - 1)

Henry County, Indiana, Sheriff John M. Sproles once again looked at a bad situation and thought, "HOW CAN I MAKE THIS WORSE?"

At 642 p.m. this evening (Tuesday, January 13, 2026), Sheriff Sproles recorded a six-minute, fifty-six-second video in which he outlined his "official statement" regarding the traffic stop his deputy conducted on Saturday, January 10, 2026.

As is common for Sheriff Sproles, he always finds a way to make a bad situation worse by interjecting himself. He makes inappropriate comments and, again and again, proves he is not a true leader.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey reviews the Sheriff's statement and offers his thoughts on the Sheriff's remarks. Does this help or hurt the situation, and what comes next? The problem with John Sproles is that one can never be too sure!

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers a worrisome traffic stop by the Henry County, Indiana, Sheriff's Department on Saturday, January 10, 2026.

Only ten days into the new year, and Sheriff John M. Sproles' team has already gone viral for stupidity!

And then Bilbrey, again, covers the "extremely disorderly" City of Muncie, Indiana.
