Mark Hurt on Crime

One small brick in the wall of justice

In regard to criminal justice reform, Hurt commended the foresight shown by then Governor Mike Pence and the Indiana legislature but noted that more remains to be done.

There is no co-pay and no deductible for patients, for example, receiving mental health care through the prison system. To that end, he commends an expansion of HIP 2.0 to those leaving the prisons and jails so expanded health care services, transportation, housing and counseling services--medicine evaluation and medical treatment--can occur through forensic diversion.
