The adult strip as a civic record: this ground's case is told in Crime, whole

2000–2003 · POINTER STRENGTH BY DESIGN — THE WHOLE TELLING IS CRIME'S

Pointer, not a re-telling: the adult trade's civic record on this ground is one case, and this build tells it whole exactly once — in Crime & Public Safety, "The Pleasureland case, 2000–2003: the inheritance, whole," from the court, prosecutor's and press-of-record record. This article carries only the pointer and the seat: a store of the prosecuted company stood at 56415 Ash Road — five digits, which under the Town of Osceola's own published rule is county ground in Penn Township with an Osceola mailing address, which is why the case was the county prosecutor's to run and why it stands in the Crime leg. The defendants print there unadorned, at court strength, exactly as the record gives them (DF-13), and nothing of the case — its counts, its suppression ruling, its 2003 plea close — is re-told here. The adult strip's Osceola chapter is a prosecution on county ground, told in Crime; its buyout chapter belongs to another city.

Pointer to Crime & Public Safety as banked (the Pleasureland case article and the county-layer article: the Ash Road seat at 56415 Ash Road, the Census geocoder containment verdict, the town's five-digit address rule, prosecutors Toth and Dvorak). Boundary trace: Mishawaka-Penn-Harris Public Library ProQuest index item, "State sinks Boat Club sale plan; also, local girlie bar gets license renewal with no opposition" (Tribune, 2006 — Peaches and the Torch Lounge, South Michigan Street, South Bend). No image was located for this item under a rights basis the record itself states; none is pulled.
