LEON, Ind.) – A Cincinnati man is facing numerous charges stemming from an inccident that occurred at a St. Leon gas station.  Prosecutors say 20-year-old Gregory Lucas reached out to an individual who was selling a van on Facebook Marketplace.  Lucas allegedly offered two ounces of cocaine, $4,500 and marijuana as payment for the van.  The seller contacted Indiana State Police and a meeting was set up to sell the van at the Amoco in St. Leon on September 17.  Undercover troopers were at the station when they say Lucas arrived wearing a ski mask, black jacket and black pants.  lt was unusual for someone to be wearing a jacket, ski mask, black fleece jacket and long pants as the temperature was in the 90's,” Dearborn County Prosecutor Lynn Deddens said.  Troopers say Lucas was walking around the backside of the gas station when he was confronted by police.  Lucas allegedly said he was there to purchase a vehicle and said he had messages to confirm the meeting.   » Read More

West Yellowstone mayor resigns after backlash over political Facebook posts – KBZK.com

Town of West Yellowstone Mayor Jeff McBirnie of West Yellowstone is facing scrutiny for his political statements on social media. WEST YELLOWSTONE — On Tuesday evening, West Yellowstone residents voiced their concerns about political Facebook posts made by Mayor Jeff McBirnie, who's position is up for re-election this year. On Wednesday morning, McBirnie resigned as mayor. The now-deleted posts contained anti-trump and anti-fascist rhetoric. One post from September stated: "Why do Republicans like protecting a pedophile? Oh that's right the orange mango is their true God." "It's just ludicrous to me that we have this coming from an official," said one resident at Tuesday's West Yellowstone town council meeting. Five residents spoke up at Tuesday's meeting, which former mayor McBirnie did not attend. Some residents called for McBirnie's resignation, while others were concerned about divisiveness in the West Yellowstone community and urged elected officials to take action promptly. "This is no longer contained in this community," one resident said. "I wouldn't wait a long time," said another resident.  » Read More

How one post on Facebook could clarify free speech rights – The Indiana Lawyer

Last month, Suzanne Swierc was handed a manila envelope—the word “confidential” stamped across it in red ink—and told her employment with Ball State University was being terminated. Her employee ID and office keys were taken, and within about five minutes, she was out of the job she had moved 1,000 miles for. The reason? The one hundred and forty words she posted on her private Facebook account regarding the assassination of political activist Charlie Kirk. Geoffrey Mearns Ball State President Geoffrey Mearns said in Swierc’s termination letter that the post caused an “unprecedented level of disruption” for the university. Swierc, formerly Ball State’s director of health promotion and advocacy, swiftly responded with a federal lawsuit against Mearns, alleging that her termination violated the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Now both sides are waiting for the court to decide whether the line drawn by Ball State on the free-speech rights of its public employees was appropriate or whether Swierc should have been granted more leeway. While the university stands by its decision,  » Read More
