But for this 540th episode, Bilbrey invites Dr. Katherine Callahan back to the program to discuss the current situation in Madison County government. The Council continues to double down on its outdated, backwards thinking, and members of the Madison County Sheriff's Department have had enough! The president of the FOP, a deputy who has served for several years, resigned his position while speaking to the Council on Thursday evening, October 9, 2025. He is the first of many, Bilbrey is afraid. Things could get really, really bad before they ever get better—if they ever get better! #ThePoliticalSpotlight</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;BREAKING NEWS&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;WANTED FUGITIVE FROM MADISON COUNTY, INDIANA, STEVEN "STEVE" CRAIG SUMNER HAS BEEN CAPTURED!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As The Political Spotlight has covered in past episodes, former Madison County Councilor Steven Sumner was arrested and charged with several serious sex crimes against children in 2021.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;While navigating the start of Madison County's "Mickey Mouse" joke of a legal system, Sumner was given an outrageously low bond, which allowed him to flee in 2023, making him a fugitive from justice ever since.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;However, due to the persistence of Sumner's survivors, a few other determined citizens, the Madison County Sheriff's Department, led by Sheriff John Beeman, and the U.S. Marshals, tips were received, leads were followed, and every effort was made to capture Sumner. This was finally accomplished on Tuesday afternoon, September 9, 2025.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey celebrates this MASSIVE victory for justice in the 520th episode of 'The Political Spotlight.'&lt;/p&gt;

<p>WANTED FUGITIVE FROM MADISON COUNTY, INDIANA, STEVEN &quot;STEVE&quot; CRAIG SUMNER HAS BEEN CAPTURED!</p>

<p>As The Political Spotlight has covered in past episodes, former Madison County Councilor Steven Sumner was arrested and charged with several serious sex crimes against children in 2021.</p>

<p>While navigating the start of Madison County&#39;s &quot;Mickey Mouse&quot; joke of a legal system, Sumner was given an outrageously low bond, which allowed him to flee in 2023, making him a fugitive from justice ever since.</p>

<p>However, due to the persistence of Sumner&#39;s survivors, a few other determined citizens, the Madison County Sheriff&#39;s Department, led by Sheriff John Beeman, and the U.S. Marshals, tips were received, leads were followed, and every effort was made to capture Sumner. This was finally accomplished on Tuesday afternoon, September 9, 2025.</p>

<p>Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey celebrates this MASSIVE victory for justice in the 520th episode of &#39;The Political Spotlight.&#39;</p>
