Brewington Named 2016 District 8 Indiana Conservation Officer of the Year.
Indiana Conservation Officers of Operational District 8 recently nominated Officer Neal Brewington as the 2016 District 8 Indiana Conservation Officer of the Year. Brewington, a 13-year veteran officer, is assigned to Washington County.
Brewington, a Depauw native, started his career with the DNR Law Enforcement Division in 2003, and was initially assigned to Miami County in northern Indiana. In 2007, Brewington transferred to Washington County, where he currently resides.
In addition to normal patrol duties, Brewington is a certified Sonar Operator, Boat Accident Investigator, Airboat Operator, and Cave Rescue Team member. He works very closely with local police agencies and is heavily involved with community schools and civic organizations’ outdoor education programs.
Each year, the DNR Law Enforcement Division’s 10 operational districts nominate one of their peers to receive the District Officer of the Year award, which also makes the recipient eligible for the Division’s prestigious Pitzer award. The Pitzer award is given to the state’s top officer, and is named after Conservation Officer James Pitzer, who was killed in the line of duty in 1961.
District 8 Lieutenant, Phil Schuetter said of Officer Brewington, “Neal is an outstanding officer who consistently performs his duties with little supervision required. Whether it’s catching a poacher, apprehending a thief or drug dealer, or educating kids in his community about hunting and boating safety, Neal’s work is among the best in this District.”
Operational District 8 consists of 10 counties, including Perry, Crawford, Harrison, Floyd, Clark, Scott, Jackson, Lawrence, Orange, and Washington.

Sen. Houchin Unveils Draft of Legislation to Require DNA Collection for Felony Arrests
State Sen. Erin Houchin (R-Salem) today unveiled a draft of legislation she plans to introduce in the 2017 legislative session to require DNA collection from individuals arrested for a felony.
The legislation has received bipartisan support from Indiana lawmakers and the nonpartisan Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council. She was joined by State Sen. Jack E. Sandlin (R-Indianapolis), State Rep. B. Patrick Bauer (D-South Bend), State Rep. Greg Steuerwald (R-Avon), Boone County Prosecutor Todd Meyer, and Boone County Sheriff Mike Nielsen.
Similar to how law enforcement gathers photographs, fingerprints and other identifying information after an arrest, this bill would allow police to collect DNA samples that would be uploaded to a registry. DNA samples from individuals who are later acquitted of felonies would be expunged from the registry.
“Keeping our communities safe and giving law enforcement every tool they need to do their jobs efficiently and accurately is a top priority,” Houchin said. “DNA profiling is an accurate, widely used tool that will help law enforcement solve crimes and convict those who are responsible.”
Houchin noted the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the practice of obtaining DNA samples from felony arrestees.
Currently, more than 30 states and the federal government have laws that authorize the analysis of DNA samples collected from individuals arrested or charged of certain crimes.
The Indiana General Assembly will reconvene on Jan. 3 to begin discussing proposed legislation.
A Preliminary Draft of Houchin’s proposed legislation is attached below.
