Senate Bill 200, authored by Sen. Mike Young, R-Indianapolis, “permits the attorney general to request the appointment of a special prosecuting attorney if a prosecuting attorney is categorically refusing to prosecute certain crimes.”
Although Young will claim otherwise, most people recognize the bill was filed primarily to try to overrule Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears’ decision to no longer prosecute people for possession of small amounts of marijuana.
That policy does not prevent prosecutions for larger amounts, dealing or other charges like driving while intoxicated.
While some states are legalizing recreational use of marijuana outright - with Virginia poised to maybe become the next - other states or localities have moved to reduce or even eliminate penalties on small-time users.
