Safety Director Frank Straub's Misallocation of Public Safety Resources (i.e.: tax payers' dollars)
IACC continues to be understaffed, animals are provided with less than adequate veterinary care in a building with an antiquated HVAC system that does not meet federal standards while the Public Safety Director reportedly enjoys remodeling of his office space and the hiring of assistants and transfers from IMPD with pay raises for his own "Indianapolis Homeland Security" division.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) and Indianapolis Animal Care and Control (IACC)
IMPD with the assistance of IACC made the largest dog-fighting raid in Indianapolis history on Friday, August 6, in the 3000 block of West 60th Street. Twenty-three people were arrested. According to police, nine pit bulls, some of them scarred, scratched and bloodied, were removed from inside and outside the home, along with drugs, more than $10,000 cash, guns and fighting equipment. These people often get off with a slap on the wrist. What can you do? Make your voice heard by taking action.
