Description
On Tuesday, Oct. 1, seven Indianapolis councilors took their seats for the first meeting of the council's Investigative Committee. The members are tasked with looking into complaints against members of the Hogsett administration.
The bipartisan undertaking got the green light last month after multiple people came forward, alleging a culture of sexual harassment inside city hall. That included accusations against Mayor Joe Hogsett's former top aide, Thomas Cook.
The committee will work with an outside firm to also address gaps in the city’s policies and reporting process for victims.
