Judge Throws Out Tax Charges in Broad Ripple Case | Indianapolis News
Description
A Marion County judge just tossed out tax charges against Indianapolis bar owner Robert Sabatini, calling the case unconstitutional — a move that’s sending shockwaves through local law enforcement. The Fraternal Order of Police is raising alarms, accusing prosecutors of overreaching by investigating businesses based on proximity to crime and sifting through private tax records. Prosecutors push back, citing a similar case where a different judge ruled the opposite way, arguing Sabatini’s case isn’t precedent. But FOP president Rick Snyder warns this sets a dangerous precedent, making constitutional rights feel like a legal gamble. Now, prosecutors are consulting the state AG’s office as tensions mount between law enforcement and the justice system over how far investigative power should stretch.
