Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey kicks off episode 608 with a bit of history about Delaware County's 3rd Courthouse (built in 1887 and torn down in 1967) and a very expensive bell from that old...old Courthouse! ($22,000 to be exact!) Next, Bilbrey shares his thoughts on Indiana House Bill 1359, specifically Amendment #2 to that bill. The amendment would cut early voting time in half and was presented by Indiana State Senator Mike Gaskill (R-Pendleton). Bilbrey has mixed feelings about this bill and would like more communication from both sides before a decision is made, but this is politics... so that is more than likely not going to happen! Lastly, Bilbrey recaps his time at the Henry County Sheriff's Department on Tuesday, February 17, 2026. Bilbrey was in the 'House of Sproles' to review videos pertaining to two separate incidents: (The Bell Traffic Stop) & (The Nicholas Gulley Jail Incident). Bilbrey has a lot to say about the situations and his ongoing attempt to uncover the truth. #ThePoliticalSpotlight
