The Police Solution: Former Indiana Sheriff Jamey Noel gets 12 years for spending funds on travel and gifts
A former southern Indiana sheriff has been sentenced to 12 years in prison after pleading guilty to charges that he spent millions of dollars in local funds on travel, gifts, automobiles and other personal expenses.
Medlock also ordered Noel, 53, to pay $270,000 in fines and more than $3 million in restitution to the agencies affected by his actions, telling the former sheriff he had “tarnished the badge and failed everyone in law enforcement.”
Prosecutors accused Noel and his family of spending millions of dollars for personal purchases that included travel, gifts, clothing and vehicles, the News and Tribune reported. Medlock said in June that Noel had used the firefighter association’s funds as a “personal piggy bank.”
The Indiana State Police conducted dozens of searches that uncovered questionable payments for classic cars, college tuition and an aircraft.
You're viewing a single thread.
it's refreshing to see a story about a cop just embezzling, instead of raping and murdering people
or framing people for murders, while the actual murderers go free. ffs... law enforcement isn't just about putting some rando in jail for life or the death penalty, it's about getting THE ACTUAL MURDERER off the streets.
I cannot fathom how this one principal is so often disregarded in law enforcement.
