AT Offline: Aaron Lown & John Roscoe Swartz of BUILT
September Guest: Aaron Lown and John Roscoe Swartz of BUILT
AT Offline: The NY Design Meetup
Attendance: 140+
Our most recent Meetup kicked off with Phil Michealson of KartMe (a free website that helps you to organize, share, and make decisions with friends on a variety of projects) and designer Monica Velez shared her "Feel Me II" mattress. Following was the featured event with Aaron Lown and John Roscoe Swartz of BUILT — jump below for the BUILT transcript and all the images integrated from Aaron & John's presentation…
MAXWELL GILLINGHAM-RYAN:: So let's think back to a time before there were neoprene wine carriers; when our only choice for carrying wine was those black plastic bags used by almost every wine and liquor merchant in New York. I remember back when Astor Wines had a very standard-looking front counter. And then, all of a sudden, the front counters of wine stores started to get more interesting — we started to see these beautiful, colorful and functional neoprene wine carriers produced by our guests tonight. A little bit about BUILT before we begin — Aaron Lown and John Roscoe Swartz started the company in 2003 as an answer to a problem, not knowing how much it would expand and how quickly it would do so. Friends from Cranbrook, Aaron and John left their previous careers to start BUILT, which as of 2010 has sold over 7,000,000 neoprene totes, sold in over 50 countries. They expanded from wine to a variety of items to help you carry things — such as lunch totes, book totes, even iPad holders.
Thank you for joining us. So I usually start out these discussions asking about how the company or product got started. Tonight, I'd like to ask you a bit about why you both decided to become designers and how you ended up going to Cranbrook.
JOHN ROSCOE SWARTZ: I became a designer because early on in my life I fell in love with great design. I grew up in Ohio, but had the chance to escape to Italy at the age of 18 — a trip that transformed my life. I remember walking into an Alessi store and seeing the La cupola espresso maker by (Aldo) Rossi and thinking what an amazing, well-crafted piece it was. It changed my whole outlook and transformed my feelings about design.
AARON LOWN: I feel the same passion for Rossi. I'm a painter, so craft, pottery, and other hand-made objects — when well-made — make me feel the passion that went into the design of this object. I grew up in Maine, where my family ran a shoe manufacturing company. I grew up around craftspeople, factory workers, and artisans, so I'm pretty attune to a well-made product.
MAXWELL: Okay, so I understand where you're both coming from, but most people don't go to Italy and fall in love with Alessi products, or grow up around crafts and follow a design career. I'm curious to learn a bit more about how you felt design was your calling.
AARON: I had a first-grade assignment where we were asked to write what we'd do if we were President of the United States. I ended up creating my own typeface! Graphic design was always an interest of mine, and I ended up getting my BFA in graphic arts at Parsons. I actually also spent a lot of time in high school on pottery. I went to crafts camp at thirteen and actually threw pots next to Jonathan Adler. He was so good at throwing pots — it was intimidating! So I ended up going over to the woodworking shop instead. I was pretty upset about this at the time — in fact, funny story is that shortly after that I actually broke Adler's ankle in a basketball game (not on purpose of course).
JOHN: In 1991 we were in the midst of a recession, and I figured it would be a good time to go back to school. Cranbrook has such history, it was an attractive option. It's almost like an art & design "monastery" — graduate study only, and a very free cross-discipline platform. More concentrated studies in graduate school make relationships and close contacts even stronger.
MAXWELL: So when you left, what did you think you'd do next?
JOHN: Cranbrook was a great education intellectually — lots of debate and critique. I ended up getting a degree in Printmaking (my mom is a Printmaker) with a graduate thesis in furniture making. Like I said, cross-discipline study is encouraged at Cranbrook.
AARON: John and I came together because we wanted to keep exploring and learning. We moved to New York together, where we were lucky enough to find a great landlord who supplied us an apartment along with studio space. We both did freelance to earn money (architectural modeling, drawings, etc.).
JOHN: I was hell-bent on learning a craft, so I apprenticed with a furniture maker…
AARON: …who happened to be the woodworker who created Donald Judd's furniture.
MAXWELL: Tell us about the first wine tote.
AARON: We were in our Tribeca studio one night, and this guy knocks on the door. It was a neighbor of ours that we had befriended. Anyway, we start talking and he's telling us about work (he was a wine merchant) and how he's looking for a modern, elegant wine tote. We offered to make one for him — his only requests were that he didn't like burlap, and he didn't like images of grapes. We created an Italian leather wine carrier; it was made here, and very expensive. But he loved it. So while it solved his problem, it didn't solve ours, as it was too expensive to sell to many others.
BUILT: The amazing alums of Cranbrook — Charles and Ray Eames, Florence Knoll, Eero Saarinen to name a few.
AARON: As I mentioned, my family manufactured shoes. What's amazing about both of our families is that we both have uncles that invented major medical devices (Aaron's uncle invented the defibrillator, John's uncle invented the insulin pump). I suppose this type of entrepreneurial attitude also helped shape our interest in design and hand-crafted products.
MAXWELL: The Dwell Studio founders said that they created textiles because they found them easy to ship! Simplicity makes sense.
BUILT: This is the culmination of 10 years of effort. We wanted to manufacture in Asia, as we found that we couldn't afford to do it in the US. We did a google search for "neoprene factories in Asia" and sent along our plans to 5 different factories. Some read the plans in inches, some in centimeters. Some even created the plan in both, resulting in very narrow, long bags! When we got all the samples in-house it was easy to make a decision on whom to go with. Neoprene allows for a cut-and-sew product that is also very dimensional (given Neoprene's properties). The bags are created from one sheet that is sewn together. It packs flat (24 / box) and originally we simply shipped to a self storage facility in New York. The Neoprene version of our bag was an instant success — the issue was one of quantity. We borrowed $30,000 from friends and family to place a large order for a container-load of finished product. We attended the 2004 New York Gift Show and MoMA buyers came in — they saw the bags and placed a $100,000 order on the spot. We took a gamble with the product and it paid off very quickly.
BUILT: We did various versions of the wine tote (one bottle, two bottle) allowing us to expand and own the category. From there, we noticed that lunch bags often appeared next to the bottles, so we created a lunch tote, which won an award the first year out. It was very successful.
BUILT: Many people helped us make our dream a reality. We quickly grew from 2 to 15 people, and learned that we had to be able to pass on our vision in order to allow for expansion of the company. This resulted in the BUILT Manifesto.
Q: What are the environmental ramifications of Neoprene?
A: Neoprene lasts for 50 years. It is an inert plastic. We are working on developing products that are not plastic-based. We feel that our product replaces many disposable products of the past (the black plastic wine store bag, for example). Our product is recyclable.
Q: Have you heard of geoprene (limestone-based product)?
A: Yes, it's cool, but in terms of environmental benefits it doesn't really make sense yet. Patagonia is making wetsuits out of it. It may develop further but it's not there yet. We're always looking at new materials, though.
Q: How do you protect your designs?
A: We have a trademark on the two-bottle tote. It's a big deal because they are very hard to get. We spent a lot of time and money on it. We have put patents on almost everything we've created.
Q:Have you talked to any wetsuit manufacturers about using their scraps?
A: All of our products are wetsuit-grade, but there is actually very little left over during the wetsuit manufacturing process.
AARON: In our design, we are very careful to waste as little as possible. Once we come up with a design, we arrange it on the sheet so that little is wasted. Many of our new designs come from suggestions — people love what we do and enjoy coming up with new ideas for use of our products.
Q: When you started to grow quickly, did you train the staff together or did you hire a business manager, etc.?
A: To be honest, we really don't know what we're doing! But seriously, we have amazing people on our team and find that they bring experience where we don't have it, and vice versa — it's a great complement. Once trained, we just try to stay out of their way.
Q: Have you ever thought of working with the likes of Target or Wal-Mart?
A: We started working with Target early on, on projects that are not BUILT.
MAXWELL: Do you enjoy working with Target?
A: We chose to work with a mass market retail, so we know what that entails. Given that, it's still a struggle. The dynamic of reseller to manufacturer gives them great power. It's a challenge, but a good one.
Q: How large is your staff? How do you decide the size?
A: We currently have about 50 employees. We love what we do and we always want to do more, so we hire as needed. We do everything (sales, warehousing, quality control, design) so a large staff is needed.
Q: Do you design in-house or hire out?
A: We have an amazing in-house design team, but of course, we're always growing and looking for new talent.
MAXWELL: I usually like to finish up by asking one of two questions: Given where you currently are, what would you have done differently? Or, what's next for BUILT? Your product line is so broad now, it must feel like you've done everything.
While we've expanded to all sorts of categories, we see a common theme in all of our products — that of on-the-go transport. Thus, we are working towards tying that theme directly to a new line of products related to transport and travel. We're also always looking at new materials, so we will continue that exploration. We've got a lot of new things coming next year, so be on the lookout!
Finally, congratulations to the evening's two winners of BUILT totes!
• Special thanks to Kayne Elisabeth Rourke for transcribing our Meetup!
• Special thanks to Knoll for welcoming our Meetup to their showroom!
• Special thanks to our wine sponsor, September Wine & Spirits!

Beardworm, also called Pogonophoran, any of a group of marine invertebrates constituting the phylum Pogonophora. Pogonophorans live a sedentary life in long, protective tubes on seafloors throughout the world. The common name beardworm refers to the beardlike mass of pinnate (feather-like) tentacles borne at the anterior end of many species. An intestine, which forms in embryos, disappears as development progresses. Males of the phylum are generally similar in appearance to females. Pogonophorans are the only multicellular animals that have neither mouth nor anus.
Pogonophorans were first classified as a distinct phylum in the middle of the 20th century. The first species, Siboglinum weberi, described in 1914, came from the seas of the Malayan Archipelago; the second species, Lamellisabella zachsi, which came from the Okhotsk Sea, was described in 1933. In 1937 a new class called Pogonophora was established for Lamellisabella. In 1955 a close affinity between Siboglinum and Lamellisabella was proved, and the members were placed in the newly established phylum Pogonophora.
Pogonophorans usually inhabit marine waters to depths that exceed 1,000 metres (3,280 feet); some species have been found at depths ranging from 7,000 to 10,000 metres. A native population inhabits the trenches of the Pacific and the Indian oceans. Many genera have a discontinuous distribution.
Natural history.
The tentacles, probably used during feeding, vary in number according to body size. The tentacles are long processes containing blood vessels and are continuous with the body cavity, or coelom. Rows of very thin single-celled units called pinnules are found on the tentacles. The pinnules, which extend into the intertentacular cavity formed by the free or fused tentacles, intermesh to form a filter. Beside each pinnule base is a ciliary tract. In each intertentacular region, ciliary tracts produce a current of water that carries in microorganisms and other nutrients; these are filtered through the pinnule filter. Digestive enzymes probably are secreted by gland cells located at the pinnule bases. Water leaves by an opening at the base of certain tentacles. The digested food may be absorbed by the pinnules. The pinching off of small food particles in the outer layers of the pinnules during a process known as pinocytosis also has been observed. Direct penetration of amino acids from sea-water into the tentacles also has been reported to take place.
Reproduction is sexual. Eggs, which have a high yolk content, are laid by the female in the anterior part of the tube, in which fertilization and early development to formation of a swimming larva also occur. Cleavage leads to the formation of a bilaterally symmetrical embryo. A cell layer called the endoderm first is represented by a few yolk-rich cells, which form a primary intestine; the intestine disappears as the yolk is utilized. Both mouth and anus fail to develop. A secondary body cavity is formed by separation of coelomic pockets from the primary intestine. The embryo develops into a larva having two ciliary belts and three body segments.
Form and function.
The wormlike body varies in length from several centimetres to 0.5 metre (1.64 feet), the body diameter, from 0.06 millimetre to 4 millimetres (0.002 inch to 0.16 inch). Lamellibrachia barhami is one of the largest species. The body consists of three segments: two small anterior regions are called protosome and mesosome; the long trunk section is called the metasome. Each segment has its own coelom. The small protosome bears tentacles. The mesosome contains a structure known as a bridle, also called a frenulum, a pair of oblique cuticular ridges that extend backward to meet in the midventral line. The bridle supports the protruding worm on the edge of its tube. The metasome is divided into two sections by a pair of parallel ridges called belts; these have rows of small platelets containing minute teeth. One part of the metasome, in front of the belts, has a groove bordered by low folds.
The protective tube is submerged in mud at the lower end; the very thin tubes of Sclerolinum, however, pierce pieces of sunken wood. The tube, secreted by special glands, contains a hard substance called chitin. Although the animals never leave their tubes, they are able to move inside them.
The body wall consists of an outer layer of epidermal cells covered by a cuticle. Beneath the epidermal cells is a layer of longitudinal muscle cells. The nervous system, found within the epidermis, forms an almost continuous network. There are no sense organs. The circulatory system consists of two long vessels: in one, blood flows forward; in the other, backward. At the base of the tentacles, the vessel through which blood flows forward is differentiated into a muscular heart, which serves to push blood into the tentacle vessels. The blood contains the pigment hemoglobin. The excretory system consists of a pair of nephridia, or coelomoducts, which connect the body cavity with the exterior.
The reproductive system consists of a pair of sexual glands that lie in the trunk. In females, ovaries are found in the anterior part of the metasome, while the sexual openings, or oviducts, are found in the middle of the body. In males, the testes are located in the posterior part of the body, and the sexual openings, called sperm ducts, in the anterior part. Numerous capsules containing sperm form in the sperm ducts of the males.
Evolution and classification.
The Pogonophora may be separated into two classes, Afrenulata and Frenulata. The Afrenulata contains one species—Lamellibrachia barhami, which has been found in the Pacific Ocean near the coast of California. The class Frenulata contains 16 genera in six families. A total of 110 species of Pogonophora thus far have been identified; it is probable that many more species remain to be identified.
According to general body plan and embryological development, Pogonophora should be included with the large group of animals that have a secondary body cavity; this group also includes Chaetognatha, Tentaculata, Hemichordata, and Echinodermata. A rich fossil Pogonophora fauna has been found in deposits of the Cambrian period (540 to 505 million years ago) and Ordovician period (505 to 438 million years ago) near St. Petersburg, in Poland, and in Siberia.

Application Notes - measurement solution tips/techniques
- Surveying the Best Ways to Test Antennas and Antenna Arrays - In our ongoing discussion of practical test methods, we'll now take a closer look at the testing of antennas and antenna arrays. This topic spans a variety of test setups and test methods: far-field and near-field test ranges; multi-aperture and phased-array radar systems; and radar cross-section (RCS) measurements.
- Overcoming RF & MW Interference Challenges in the Field Using Real-time Spectrum Analysis (RTSA) - Learn practical strategies to overcome RF and microwave interference challenges using RTSA. See why this type of analysis is required to troubleshoot interference in today's aerospace defense networks with bursty and elusive signals.
- Radar Measurements Part 7: Assessing and Improving Radar System Performance - Continuing our discussion of practical test methods, we'll now explore three ways to assess and improve radar system performance: noise figure, time sidelobe level and phase noise. Noise figure has a direct effect on receiver performance; time sidelobe level affects spatial resolution, dynamic range, and more; and phase noise causes sidebands that reduce signal-to-noise ratio. This note presents a variety of ways to measure and characterize each of these parameters.
- Radar Measurements Part 6: Surveying the Best Ways to Test Antennas and Antenna Arrays - In our ongoing discussion of practical test methods, we'll now take a closer look at the testing of antennas and antenna arrays. This topic spans a variety of test setups and test methods: far-field and near-field test ranges; multi-aperture and phased-array radar systems; and radar cross-section (RCS) measurements.
- Radar Measurements Part 5: Characterizing Radar Components and Subassemblies - In our ongoing discussion of practical test methods, we'll now take a closer look at the testing of components and subassemblies. The ability to maximize radar performance depends on thorough analysis and careful optimization of each component and subassembly in a radar system. Two types of instruments simplify these measurements: power meters and vector network analyzers (VNAs). We'll take a closer look at both, but the emphasis is on the range of VNA capabilities that enable characterization of components and subsystems that carry pulse-modulated signals.
- Radar Measurements Part 4: Measuring Radar Signals with Vector Signal Analyzers and Wideband Instruments - In our ongoing discussion of practical test methods, the next step is to examine the use of vector signal analyzers (VSAs) and wideband instruments—signal analyzers and oscilloscopes—to measure the frequency and phase in today's increasingly complex radar signals. Compared to traditional approaches that combine multiple instruments, these integrated tools provide enhanced ease of use that makes it easier to produce accurate, repeatable measurement results.
- Radar Measurements Part 3: Measuring the Characteristics of Pulsed Radar Signals - Extracting the frequency and timing characteristics of a pulsed signal opens the door to a deeper understanding of the transmitter performance. This application note, the third in the series, describes measurement alternatives that range from low-cost counters to full-featured spectrum and signal analyzers with a wealth of built-in capabilities and dedicated measurement applications for pulse analysis.
- Radar Measurements Part 2: Defining the Pulsed Radar Signal and the Essential Measurements of Signal Power – A radar transmitter is often the most costly component in a system and can have the greatest effect on system performance. This application note, the second in the series, defines the nature of actual radar signals and describes practical ways to measure the power in those signals.
- Radar Measurements Part 1: A Framework for Understanding: Deriving the Radar Range Equation - This application note is the first in a series that delves into radar systems and the associated measurement challenges and solution. In this application note, we take a closer look at the mathematical foundation for all current trends and technologies in radar: the radar range equation.
- RF Streaming for Aerospace & Defense Applications - This application note discusses how critical it is for the system engineer to not only precisely measure the time it takes for a radar warning receiver to recognize a possible threat, but also how long it takes the system to generate an appropriate response.
- Accelerating the Testing of Phased-Array Antennas and Transmit/Receive Modules - In applications as diverse as radar, radio astronomy and wireless communications, developers are using antenna arrays to enable beamforming. This technique provides many benefits.
- Using Calibration to Optimize Performance in Crucial Measurements - This application note provides tips to ensure you get the calibration you expect (and deserve), and help you improve effective measurement performance through innovative use of calibration data and results.
- Using Wider, Deeper Views of Elusive Signals to Characterize Complex Systems and Environments - looks at signal-identification techniques for monitoring EW scenarios, identifying unwanted spectral events or detecting issues in transmitted waveforms. For identified signals, the narrative discusses methods for making pulsed vector measurements in both the time and frequency domains. The second part outlines several analysis options that support typical requirements in dynamic range and bandwidth
- Pulse Analysis Techniques for Radar and EW - describes the best tools for different types of pulse analysis, along with display and analysis techniques for various signals and measurement goals. It also looks at key signal acquisition and processing technologies such as IF and frequency mask triggering, signal capture, and post-processing.
- Electronic Warfare Signal Generation: Technologies and Methods - summarizes the available technological approaches for EW signal and environment simulation, and the latest progress in flexible, high-fidelity solutions.
- Choosing the Right Emitter Generation Source for Radar/EW Applications – helps narrow down the decision making process and ensure existing assets are well utilized.
- Assembling Cost-effective Development and Verification Solutions for EW Systems – This application note presents two off-the-shelf alternatives that can address the simulation requirements of subset scenarios for a system under test (SUT). The proposed alternatives offer greater versatility because the constituent instruments can be easily used for other measurement tasks.

Local Bakes Tasty Treats
NEW BREMEN — Those who claim reality television does no good in the world have never tasted Sawyer Williams' cupcakes.
Inspired by Cake Boss and Cupcake Wars, the New Bremen High School student started baking cupcakes in his kitchen and since has been asked for a steady supply of the sweet treats by family and friends for special occasions including graduation parties and birthday parties.
This year, he was asked to make the GOBA bicycle logo in cupcakes as a centerpiece for the event that will bring 3,000 cyclists to New Bremen.
Williams, who calls his venture Will-Yums Cupcakes, prides himself on offering a variety of unusual flavors including snickerdoodle, cookies and cream, peanut butter surprise, red velvet, pancake with maple buttercream, cherry chip cake with cherry frosting, orange creamsicle, marshmallow flower, banana with cinnamon cream cheese frosting, strawberry milkshake, peanut butter hightops, mocha caramel cappucino, lemonade, s'more, cookie dough, black forest and turtle cupcakes.
He provided cupcakes for the Team Oliver Zumba Party to raise money for a local child's seizure dog, sends them with his mom to the YMCA where she works, and tests out new flavors on friends at school.
"I really just do it to make people happy," Williams said. "I like seeing them smile."
If pressed about what he considers fair, he suggests about $9 per dozen because one set of cupcakes can be extremely intricate, and are a reflection of the many cupcakes baked and ingredients used in an attempt to perfect the recipe.
Plus the treats are labor-intensive. An order of marshmallow flowers, for example, can take him six hours if he doesn't have everyone in his family helping, he said.
The family has all started pitching in, however, with his mother and father cutting and dipping decorative flower petals, and Williams' mother doubling as designated dishwasher.
Williams' twin brother Seth, he said, is the chief taste tester of the original creations.
"He's not afraid to say if it tastes bad, either," Williams said.
While originally Williams said he wanted to make cakes, he said he wasn't patient enough for cake, so he tried cupcakes, scouting out recipes online, from books and even inventing his own.
Peanut butter surprise, he said, is his own creation inspired by his family's love of the flavor combination.
"I like to see what goes well together," he said.
If something doesn't work, he asks people what aspects could be improved, and tries to tweak the ingredients to get the effect.
His favorite cupcake, he said, is cookies and cream.
"I always make it, and that's the one I suggest to people if they ask me what I like," he said.
One day Williams said he hopes to own his own cupcake business, and his goal is eventually to sell locally, although he's already busy with band, his job at New Bremen Coffee and Books, and school.
He calls the cupcakes a hobby that he wants to one day make a career.
People who want to follow Williams' adventures in baking, suggest new flavor combinations, or who need specialty cupcakes, can "like" his Will-Yums Cupcakes page on Facebook or call 419-953-9757.

Item 49 of 49
Going for a Surrey Ride, Alfred Shaker Village, ca. 1918Item 6916 info
United Society of Shakers
This photograph was probably taken soon after the Second family at Alfred closed in April of 1918. Eldress Harriett Coolbroth (1864-1953), patting Old Dan, Brother Stephen Gowen, driving the surrey, and 13 Sisters moved to the Church Family at that time.
In 1931 the Church family itself closed and 21 Alfred Shakers moved to the community at Sabbathday Lake.
The photo is taken in front of the Third Dwelling House, Alfred.

The Pope Is Now Tweeting
Someone (God?) gave Pope Benedict XVI an iPad, and today he became the first pope to Tweet (that we know of) when he announced his plans to exhume Pope John Paul II and put his corpse on trial. Just kidding! That was a different pope.
Benedict wrote, "Dear Friends, I just launched news.va Praised be our Lord Jesus Christ! With my prayers and blessings, Benedictus XVI." (Yes, even the pope knows Twitter is for self-promotion). Previously, the Pope had blessed social networking, but he has expressed skepticism about the internet. Twitter will probably not make him feel any better.


text: Ok so I had a really fun time watching this video of PC Gamer's new superfluous gaming rig. On the surface...you may think nothing of it. I'm guessing they have a budget of around 12k for that rig. What caught my attention though, were the number of amateur mistakes I could spot. Have a look and see how many things you can spot that you'd never do if you were building the "ultimate gaming rig" (in terms of performance) and had 12k and your reputation to blow. After a few days I'll share my observations with you! Remember, don't be an Alienware gamer. Flashy lights don't increase your frame rate or kill/death ratio. - HyperMatrix

(Bloomington, IN) - Bloomington police arrested attorney Phillip Chamberlain overnight on charges of misconduct involving his clients and violations of Indiana's Securities Act. The arrest comes after a joint investigation conducted by the Bloomington Police Department and Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita's Prosecution Assistance Unit (PAU). Monroe County Prosecuting Attorney Chris Gaal filed the criminal charges. Chamberlain faces five felony counts and could face up to eight years in prison for each charge.
"This case represents an element of crime that is often difficult to investigate and prosecute," said Secretary Rokita. "The successful collaboration by all investigators involved sends the message that in Indiana, we will not stand by and let our citizens be victimized. We will use every resource at our disposal to protect Hoosiers from financial attack."
The charges filed indicate that a client of Chamberlain sought legal advice related to investing in rental properties. Chamberlain allegedly offered his client an alternative whereby the client would loan Chamberlain and others money for the development of a golf course and construction of a home in Lawrence County. Instead of investing the client's funds, Chamberlain is being charged with stealing a large portion. He also allegedly forged an endorsement signature on one of the client's checks and then deposited the check into his own bank account.
Specific charges against Chamberlain include two counts of Fraudulent or Deceitful Acts with the Offer, Sale or Purchase of a Security, one count of Forgery, one count of Offer or Sale of an Unregistered Security and one count of Transacting Business as an Unregistered Broker-Dealer or Agent - all Class C felonies. The charges described are merely an accusation. The defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.

About the PAU
Indiana Secretary of State Todd Rokita created the Prosecution Assistance Unit (PAU) in 2004 to advance criminal investigations and to facilitate the prosecution of alleged Securities Act violations and Loan Broker Act violations. The focus of the PAU is to assist state prosecutors in an effort to work together at the courthouse and the Statehouse to root out white-collar crime. By working with law enforcement throughout the state, the office has helped to file charges in 27 high-profile investment fraud cases in Indiana, and has a 26 to 1 conviction-to-dismissal record, with more than 200 years of jail time sentenced to date.
