0
ndiana State Police arrested a Clark County husband and wife Tuesday, July 15, 2025, for child exploitation and related crimes following a cyber tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

In December 2024, the Indiana State Police Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force in Sellersburg launched an investigation after receiving cyber tips from NCMEC indicating that a specific communications app account was potentially used to transmit child pornography images or videos.

 
Jeffery Thor Fast
Savana Jane Fast
 
Based on information gathered, investigators obtained a search warrant for a Buckthorne Drive residence in Jeffersonville as well as search warrants for 37-year-old Jeffery Thor Fast and 37-year-old Savana Jane Fast, both from Jeffersonville.

On Tuesday, July 15, 2025, members of the ICAC Task Force, with the assistance of the Jeffersonville Police Department, executed the search warrants, seizing digital devices and other items from the address.

 
As a result of the investigation, both Jeffery and Savana Fast were arrested without incident. 
 
Both individuals were taken to the Clark County Jail and are each charged with Voyeurism, a Level 6 Felony, Child Exploitation, a Level 5 Felony, and Obstruction of Justice, a Level 6 Felony.

The Indiana Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force is a multiagency task force that investigates and prosecutes persons who use the internet to sexually exploit or entice children, and the Indiana State Police oversees the task force.
 
The Indiana ICAC Task Force encourages Hoosiers to report online exploitation, solicitation, and enticement-type crimes against children to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

 
The NCMEC website can be accessed through the ICAC Task Force website.
 
To report a crime with your child as a victim involving the Internet or other electronic means, please contact your local Indiana law enforcement agency.
