A high-profile case is kept, or not kept, in public: anniversary coverage when the date comes round, a documentary or television retelling, a marker or memorial where the thing happened, a statute that takes a victim's name. This ground has two modern cases, and their keeping was coursed across the decade 2016–2026 in the press and official record reached.
The Patel case is kept in law, not in ceremony. Its durable public record is judicial: the Indiana Court of Appeals opinion of 22 July 2016 in Patel v. State, 60 N.E.3d 1041 (Ind. Ct. App. 2016), appeal number 71A04-1504-CR-166 out of cause 71D08-1307-FA-17, which vacated the feticide conviction and reduced the neglect conviction, followed by the September 2016 resentencing and release. The case remains cited in abortion-law literature after Dobbs, and the national framing fixed at trial — the ABA Journal's 2015 report of the first woman in the United States charged and convicted on a feticide charge for ending her own pregnancy, with international controversy recorded alongside — is the form in which the case travels. No anniversary observance, no memorial, no marker, and no television documentary dedicated to the case appears in the record reached for 2016–2026. The Heritage Square shooting of 20 June 2021 is kept less: no anniversary coverage, no memorial, and no marker appears in the record reached, and the case itself remains open, with no arrest announced as of November 2026. Both negatives were searched for rather than assumed; the keeping of this ground's two cases is a court opinion and an open file.
What this section does not carry is stated explicitly, to close the leg. It does not carry a line-of-duty death on CDP ground, because the county roll read whole in this section seats none here. It does not carry a gang-era killing tied to a bank case on this ground, because the 1934 Wagner killing belongs to a South Bend robbery. It does not carry a thirty-year-DNA case or an execution-after-a-pause case, because neither exists in this ground's record. No statute has taken a victim's name from either modern case.
