In June 2026, Indiana State Police investigators began an investigation after receiving information from an out-of-state resident concerning the alleged possession of child sexual abuse material.
During the investigation in July, investigators seized a cellular device from Joseph A. Jackson, 52, of Greenville. Following a digital forensic examination of the device, investigators obtained a search warrant for Jackson’s residence at 7900 Old Vincennes Road in Greenville. Investigators also obtained an arrest warrant for Jackson.
● Possession of child sexual abuse material, Level 6 felony (seven counts)
● Bestiality, Level 6 felony (one count)
The investigation is being conducted by the Indiana Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, consisting of investigators from the Indiana State Police, Jeffersonville Police Department, Clark County Sheriff’s Office and Scott County Sheriff’s Office. The task force was further assisted by the Floyd County Sheriff’s Office.
The investigation remains ongoing. Charges are preliminary and may be amended as the investigation and judicial process continue.
The Indiana Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force is a multiagency task force that investigates and prosecutes individuals who use the internet to sexually exploit or entice children. 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 involving your child that occurs over the Internet or by other electronic means, please contact your local Indiana law enforcement agency.
