Ex-Attorney General Curtis Hill broke Indiana public records law, judge rules Johnny Magdaleno, Indianapolis Star Replay Video UP NEXT A Marion County judge has ruled that the personal email addresses of public officials count as public records, bringing an end to a lawsuit by IndyStar that successfully argued Indiana's former attorney general Curtis Hill broke the state's public records law. IndyStar investigative journalist Ryan Martin requested records on employee turnover from the attorney general's office in July 2018. One of the records that fit the request was a PowerPoint presentation on the office's budget that was sent to the personal email addresses of Hill and then-Chief Deputy Aaron Negangard.
