# Gretchen Atling

Head of the Vigo County Public Defender's Office (probable identification —
addressed by name once by Commissioner Mike Morris, who asked her to respond).
On Aug. 4, 2026 she warned the county council that dropping the office's
health insurance to fund a proposed employee raise would put it out of
compliance with the staffing levels needed for 40% state cost reimbursement.
