Police are looking at the role of Marion County Prosecutor Carl Brizzi in a golf cart crash that injured an officer and also at Brizzi's extensive use of taxpayer-provided security, often into the early hours of the morning.

The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department has launched an internal affairs investigation to determine why both that officer's internal report on the injury and a public incident report provided an account that conflicted with Brizzi's.

In fact, Brizzi's name appears nowhere in those documents. Instead, they put the injured officer in the driver's seat and say only that he was working on a security detail, raising the question of why official reports would omit mention of the person most responsible for the crash.

Brizzi, a Republican in the final year of his second term as prosecutor, has faced questions since last fall focusing on his extensive business interests and his decisions in a handful of cases that raised possible conflicts of interests. The FBI reportedly has been asking questions related to those issues.
