A 19-year-old North Vernon male was arrested today and charged with four counts of sexual misconduct – include rape – of a 15-year-old Scott County girl. 

Jon Wesley Anthony

On February 7th of this year, detective Brian Busick from the Indiana State Police Post at Sellersburg was contacted by the Scott County Department of Child Services and informed of an alleged encounter and sexual misconduct between a 15 year old female from Scott County and a 19 year old male, identified as Jon Wesley Anthony, from North Vernon, (Jennings County).

The alleged misconduct occurred at the residence of the victim in Scott County when Jon Wesley Anthony agreed to meet the 15 year old at her home to do beautician work on her hair.

When Jon arrived, he stated he had forgot the materials needed to work on her hair, but he stayed at the residence and while there, he allegedly forced himself onto the 15 year old girl.

The two had originally met and became friends on a social media website. 

After detective Busick completed his investigation he turned it into the Scott County Prosecutor’s Office who filed charges.

An arrest warrant was issued out of the Scott County Circuit Court on today’s date and detective Busick arrested Jon Wesley Anthony on the charges of

  • Rape when Compelled by Force or Imminent Threat of Force
  • Sexual Misconduct with a Minor, Defendant has Intercourse or Engages in other Sexual Conduct
  • Sexual Misconduct with a Minor Preform or Submit to Fondling or Touching by an 18 Year Old
  • Sexual Battery Victim Compelled to Submit by Force or Imminent Threat of Force.

Jon Wesley Anthony was incarcerated at the Scott County Jail and is being held without bond awaiting his first court appearance.

Assisting Agencies: Perry County Sheriff’s Office, Branchville Correctional Facility, Perry County EMA/EMS along with Central Perry and Anderson Township Fire Departments. 

Persons arrested are presumed innocent until such time as found guilty in a court of law

West Washington High School Student Arrested For School Threat

0

Washington County Chief Deputy Sheriff Brent Miller arrested a West Washington High School student for making a threat against the school on Monday. 

On Monday evening, West Washington School District Safety Coordinator Robert Batchelor made contact with Deputy Miller and advised of a possible threat that had been reported to the school administration. 

Miller investigated the incident and made an arrest. The student is being detained while juvenile proceedings are ongoing in the Washington County Circuit Court. 

Batchelor made a request for increased police presence on the campus for Tuesday, Feb. 20 and Sheriff Roger Newlon coordinated the law enforcement response. 

School officials acted appropriately and took extra precautions on Tuesday, while law enforcement officials were present on campus to help ensure the safety of the students and staff. School officials worked diligently throughout the day gathering information, which was turned over to the Sheriff’s Department for investigation.

Police have found no evidence to suggest anyone else was involved in the possible threat. 

Officials further believe this incident is no longer an active threat at West Washington School Corporation. 

Sheriff Newlon is dedicated to working with all three Washington County School Corporations to make our schools a safer place. 

“I’d like to remind everyone if you see something, say something. Together we can make a difference,” said Newlon. 

Assisting agencies included the Campbellsburg Town Marshall and Mark Blackman.

Salem Walmart Wins Helen Walton Award; Top Store in Nation For Giving

0

Salem’s Walmart store has beat out every other Supercenter in the United States to win the Helen R. Walton Award for community service, leadership and volunteer work in their community. 

Salem Walmart Manager Mike King took the stage at Walmart’s Corporate Year Beginning Meeting in Texas to accept the Helen R. Walton Award

And they did it within their first year of operation – another first among the Walmart community.

“This is incredible,” said Walmart Manager Mike King. “When i came to Salem, I had a vision to do this. When anything happens in life, it really happens twice. You see it in your mind, and then you make it happen. Getting your people to buy into the vision that you can do something special…it’s like the lottery, why not us?”

“I left the highest volume store in Indiana – in Clarksville – to come to Salem,” said King. “This is the best business decision I’ve made in my life.”

Salem’s store was nominated among hundreds of other Walmarts in America and was among six stores that was considered for the award at this week’s Year Beginning Meeting in Texas. 

 

Four awards were given to a Supercenter, Neighborhood store, Sam’s Club and Distribution Center. 

The Helen R. Walton Award recognizes the store that sets the standard for being a “store of the community” through charitable giving, associate involvement and volunteerism. 

Stores nominated for this award align community service with the company’s mission to help their associates, customers and communities live better.

 

Having given thousands of dollars to local civic groups, non-profits, law enforcement agencies and encouraging their associates to give back to the Washington County community, made the Salem Walmart stand out. 

Salem Middle School teacher Dan Mullins started a program at the school to teach young men to wear ties – The Tie Guys were one of dozens of benefactors of Walmart.
Salem Schools Superintendent DL Reed and Savannah Hartsfield visited Walmart recently with some students during filming of a video recently for the Helen R. Walton awards ceremony.
John and Paula Jones took part in Shop With A Cop back in December which was held at Walmart in Salem. Walmart gave discounts and provided other assistance to help buy children in need clothing.

During the grand opening in November 2016, the store gave away $40,000 right away to the Washington County Community Foundation and Salem Police. 

And monthly, Salem’s Walmart donates to dozens of businesses including local police, the animal shelter and makes donations of food to the Washington County Food Bank and is involved with the three school districts in the county and more. 

 

The store broke records with its grand opening (the most successful opening that day around the country) and was recently named Supercenter of the Year. 

According to Human Resources manager Brad Gilbert, the store recently scored highest in associate engagement in the region. 

“We’re so honored to receive this award. Mrs. Walton had about success. It is not what you gather, but what you scatter that tells what kind of life you have lived,” said Gilbert. “Our associates have been wonderful to want to give back to the community.”
