County boundary material · St. Joseph County, Indiana
The row's own settler is the county build's sheriff and prosecutor successions; this article prints the anchors the Osceola file already holds at full strength and names the shortfall exactly. Sheriffs, banked anchors: Sokol (elected 1966); Speybroeck (1995–1998); Canarecci (resigned 2010); Grzegorek (elected November 2010); Bill Redman (2019–2026); and Alex Ruszkowski, elected November 3, 2026, who takes office January 1, 2027 — printed as a transition (SEC11 AF-O9-4). Prosecutors, banked anchors: Barnes; Toth; Dvorak (from 2003); Cotter (through 2026); and Cressy, who takes office January 1, 2027 — also a transition. The shortfall, named holder by holder as the row directs: every sheriff before Sokol and every prosecutor before Barnes is unseated in this section, and the spans between the anchors (notably the sheriff's office 1998–2010 before Canarecci's resignation year, and 2010's interim) are unrolled. The sweep for a published succession ran and is shown: searches for a St. Joseph County, Indiana sheriff succession list and a prosecutor succession list returned no Indiana county list — the results were other states' and Michigan's St. Joseph County lists, a namesake collision printed as such. No list is borrowed across the state line.
Named gap: the complete sheriff and prosecutor successions outside the anchors above — settler: the county build's sheriff and prosecutor successions, built from county records and the press of record.
