Fort Pierce - Friday July 29, 2022: This week on 'In Focus' with IRSC Public Media, we begin with Indian River County Sheriff Eric Flowers. He's made a name for himself as being one of the most transparent Sheriff’s in our region.
His office has made frequent use of social media and released timely, and often dramatic, body camera footage of events involving his officers.
He explains why body camera footage helps protects his Deputies and serves to counter false social media narratives, and he tells us why transparency is important for his office and the public.

Then we speak with Elise Mahovlich, the Administrative Manager of the Cultural Council of Indian River County.
The arts play a major role in Indian River County. She tells us how the Council serves to promote the artists who live in the county, and she talks about the economic benefits to IRC, as well as the value of the arts for our souls.
