Summary
In this episode, Indy Politics sits down with Republican Marion County Prosecutor candidate Phil Foust to talk crime, courts, and politics in Indianapolis. Foust lays out why he thinks the current administration is too soft on repeat and juvenile offenders, why he believes the relationship between the prosecutor’s office and IMPD is “at an all‑time low,” and how he’d use tougher sentencing tools and more transparency in the juvenile system. We also dig into domestic violence, public corruption allegations, and how he plans to win over moderates and Democrats in a heavily blue county.
