Ind. Gov't. - Still more on "Twenty-seven civilian employees to lose IMPD jobs"
Updating yesterday's entry, a brief story in today's Indianapolis Star reports:
City-County Council leaders said Wednesday that they will seek money to restore 10 cut public safety transcriptionist positions, after hearing warnings of a backup in criminal court cases.Those positions are among 27 civilian jobs being cut by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department at year's end in a cost-cutting move that will save $1.1 million. Most of those workers transcribe police reports, but about 10 of the employees also transcribe witness and suspect interviews, producing documents that become part of court cases and must be given to defense lawyers under tight deadlines.
