STATEHOUSE – State Rep. Suzanne Crouch (R-Evansville) authored a resolution to honor Chief Justice Randall T. Shepard for his public service in the court, Hoosier communities and the nation for 39 years.
"Chief Justice Shepard has always had a good soul, which is evident in the work he has done for all Hoosiers throughout the past decades,” said Rep. Crouch. “I appreciate how he has always stayed connected and committed to helping the Evansville area grow and progress. It is because of people like Chief Justice Shepard that others get involved in public service, including myself. I wish him all the best in his retirement.”
Chief Justice Randall T. Shepard is the longest-serving state court chief justice in the United States. He was appointed to the Supreme Court in 1985 by Gov. Robert Orr, and was selected as chief justice in 1987.
Before Chief Justice Shepard’s service on the Supreme Court, he was a Vanderburgh County Superior Court judge, served as Executive Assistant to the Mayor of the City of Evansville, and was the Special Assistant to the Under Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation.

STATEHOUSE – State Rep. Suzanne Crouch (R-Evansville) welcomed several members of the Indiana Sheriffs’ Association (ISA) from her district to the Statehouse last week when a resolution authored by State Rep. Kevin Mahan (R-Hartford City) invited them to the Indiana House of Representatives. Several dozen county sheriffs from across the state gathered on the House floor in honor of the impact the ISA has had on law enforcement.
“It was an honor to have law enforcement from my counties of Vanderburgh and Warrick counties visit the Statehouse,” said Rep. Crouch. “I’m pleased my colleagues and I in the House were able to recognize these members of ISA for the great work they do for all Hoosiers.”
The ISA was founded 82 years ago. In 1977, it became a not-for-profit organization focusing on the need to educate and train sheriff department personnel. Among their many accomplishments, the ISA has been instrumental in coordinating the Indiana Sheriffs’ Sex Offender Registry. Through their website, the ISA provides law enforcement officials and citizens with detailed information on sex offenders when they move into a new county.

"Southwestern Indiana continues to grow economically and geographically. With the completion of I-69 from Evansville to Indianapolis, we are expected to see increased job opportunities brought on by strong economic development. I will do my best to ensure that District 78 continues growing in these areas."
"It continues to be an honor to serve you in the Indiana House of Representatives. I enjoy hearing your comments and am always happy to answer any questions or concerns you might have." - Suzanne Crouch
