COMMENTS
The courthouse is considered an historic landmark, something to do with sneezing Italians - what does Renaissance mean anyway?
ABOUT THE AREA
The county seat is the City of Washington, for decades dubbed Little Washington by neighboring counties. But you will surely risk the wrath of the locals if you dare call it that. In fact, the proud residents may sick their sheep on you or toss you off the nearest covered bridge - which will not be far away because they have a bunch of those, along with plenty of wooly critters.
JUDGES
Honorable Paul Pozonsky, John DiSalle, Janet Bell handle most of the criminal cases.
PROSECUTORS
John C. Pettit is the acting District Attorney.
TYPE OF CASES
Every offense, from petty theft to juvenile crimes to homicide are handled by the Criminal Division.
