Sharon McBride

Democratic former Monroe County Prosecutor Chris Gaal has been appointed special prosecutor to review allegations against Sharon McBride, and in another case, against county Republican Party Vice-Chair Marvin "Joe" Layne.

St. Joseph County commissioners say they and Indiana State Police have finished their year-long investigation into former DuComb Center director Sharon McBride, and it's now in the hands of a special prosecutor who officials wouldn't identify.

The South Bend Common Council's attorney, Bob Palmer, cited a city ordinance in declining to identify the council members who will be the subject of complaints at the public meeting.

After seeking legal advice, the St. Joseph County Democratic party says that Sharon McBride's intent to return to her home, despite staying elsewhere temporarily, means she hasn't officially moved.

The South Bend Common Council bill would prohibit people during Privilege of the Floor from directly addressing council members or making "repetitive" comments.

When asked if she lives in her council district, South Bend Common Council President Sharon McBride said she pays a mortgage and utilities there. Council Member Oliver Davis says that's not enough.

County Commissioners say a recent audit showed evidence of financial mismanagement at the DuComb Center, though McBride denies that.
