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.
