Regionally Speaking, Monday, November 8, 2021

Today:   David Reynolds II, the son of current Porter County Sheriff David Reynolds, is on "Regionally Speaking" to talk about his candidacy in next year's Democratic Party primary election for County Sheriff.  Reynolds talks about himself, his experience in law enforcement -- including working for the Chicago office of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (a job which he had to quit, to be able to run for office) --  and as a patrol officer for the Sheriff’s Dept.   Greg Ellis, an actor/producer/author, talks about his book “The Respondent: Exposing The Cartel of Family Law.”   It's a book based, in large part, on his personal experiences in dealing with divorce and the family court system.  He’s encouraging reform of the family court system.  And Indiana Public Broadcasting’s Lee Gaines reports that many Indiana educators and families worry about the pandemic’s social and emotional toll on students with special needs.
