Corydon Woman Arrested After Traffic Stop Yields Heroin, Pills and Paraphernalia

February 7, 2018

At approximately 2:45 pm yesterday afternoon, Trooper Nathan Abbott made a traffic stop on Interstate #64 West Bound near the 118 Mile Marker in Floyd County.

The traffic stop was on a white passenger car for a traffic infraction.

During the traffic stop Trooper Abbott sensed something was not right with a passenger in the vehicle identified as Ashley Nicole Shepherd, 24, from Morris Avenue in Corydon.

Trooper Abbott deployed his K-9 Teague, who sniffed at the vehicle and made a positive indication for controlled substances in the vehicle.

A subsequent search of the vehicle and the passenger identified above, yielded Heroin, Sertraline, (a Legend Drug), a white unidentified pill and Paraphernalia.

The driver was released but the back seat passenger, Ashley Nicole Shepherd, was arrested and charged with Possession of Heroin, Possession of a Legend Drug, Possession of a Syringe, Possession of a Controlled Substance and Possession of Paraphernalia.

The arrested was incarcerated at the Floyd County Jail awaiting her first court appearance.

Jasper makes Top Ten Safest Indiana Cities

February 6, 2018

0

The National Council for Home Safety and Security is happy to announce their ranking of the Safest Cities in Indiana for 2018. The top ten cities are:

1. Zionsville
2. St. John
3. Carmel
4. Fishers
5. Dyer
6. West Lafayette
7. Westfield
8. Crown Point
9. Brownsburg
10. Jasper

Indianapolis came up last on the list, at no. 58. Salem wasn’t on the list at all.

Other rankings:

18 – Bedford

20 – Jeffersonville

25 – Bloomington

33 – Seymour

35 – Columbus

54 – Evansville

55 – Clarksville

To compile the list, the group reviewed the most recent FBI Uniform Crime Report statistics in addition to its own population data and research. Cities that did not submit a complete crime report to the FBI and cities with populations of less than 10,000 people were not included.

The cities were ranked based on the number of reported violent crimes (aggravated assault, murder, rape, and robbery) and property crimes (burglary, arson, larceny-theft, and motor vehicle theft) per 1,000 people.

These variables were then weighted, with violent crimes assigned a value 1.5 times (due to their severity) that of property crimes.

Indiana’s figures of 6.66 violent crimes per 1,000 inhabitants and 37.68 property crimes per 1,000 are near the average for the U.S. as a whole. The Midwestern state won’t be featured in any “safest states” lists, but isn’t one of the most dangerous in any respect, either.

6.66 Average violent crime per 1,000

37.68 Average property crime per 1,000

The Hoosier State’s safest community is Zionsville, a small, affluent suburb of Indianapolis. The town of 26,877 reported only 31 violent crimes and 108 property crimes.

Next is St. John (#2), a small town in the northwestern part of the state that posted just 4 violent crimes (the lowest figure for any community in Indiana with a population over 10,000) resulting in an average of .24 violent crimes per 1,000 occupants.

Carmel (#3 on the list) and Fishers (#4) are much larger communities of around 90,000 with very similar crime statistics. Each reported just 25 violent crimes, while Carmel’s rate of 8.86 property crimes per 1,000 slightly bests Fishers’ 10.32. Dyer (#5) is a small town of 15,983 bordering St. John 9 (#2) with comparably low crime rates.

Fouch Pleads Guilty To Causing Children’s Death In Train Wreck

February 5, 2018

0

A Henryville, Indiana mother plead guilty earlier today in connection to a crash with a train that killed her two children last year.

Ericka Fouch plead guilty to two counts of causing death while operating a motor vehicle while driving under influence of a controlled substance and one count of driving without a license during a hearing in Clark Circuit Court in Jeffersonville Monday.

Prosecutors accepted her plea deal and dropped the charge of neglect of a dependent resulting in death.

According to police, Fouch had been under house arrest after posting a $10,000 cash bond.

She will remain on home incarceration until she has been formally sentenced on March 8.

Police arrested Fouch in September, three months after her two children were killed in the crash with a CSX train in Henryville.

The crash took place on June 28 at a railroad crossing on State Road 160 near Pennsylvania Street killing Adalynn Fouch, 5, and Wyatt Fouch, 4, who were in the back seat.

The children were both in the car and emergency personnel found that both had weak pulses and were partially trapped inside the car Fouch was driving, a 2005 Mitsubishi SUV. The children were later pronounced dead before they were able to be removed from the car.

Autopsies of the children listed the causes of death as multiple blunt force trauma injuries. Adalynn also sustained a skull fracture and Wyatt a broken neck.

Ericka Fouch was taken to University Hospital and underwent surgery.

Fouch was arrested in September after toxicology results indicated she was under the influence of drugs. Police said her driver’s license was suspended at the time.

Clark County Prosecutor Jeremy Mull said “A BLOOD SAMPLE DRAWN AT THE SCENE SHOWS ERICKA FOUCH HAD NORDIAZEPAM, AMPHETAMINE, METH-AMPHETAMINE AND THC OR MARIJUANA IN HER SYSTEM.”

“The investigation has been ongoing since the collision occurred,” said Mull. “We had been awaiting the results of the toxicology. Upon receiving those I did file these charges because of the results they contained.”

Mull said the investigation revealed that approximately one hour before the accident Fouch admitted to usingdrugs.

“I know that she had meth and THC which is a result of using marijuana in her system and that as a result of that she has violated these Indiana statutes. These penalties carry a potential 42 years of incarceration. I will say that it is very unfortunate to have to file these charges under these circumstances,” Mull said.

Investigators examined video from the CSX train that showed the SUV driven by Ericka Fouch did not stop before it hit the train. Video and audio showed the train was blowing its horn, as it approached the flashing railroad intersection, court records said.
