6 JACKSON NATIONAL EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR Mr. Jack Murray Jack Murray started his career at the Ingham County Sheriff s Office in March of 2003 after retiring from the MDOC. At the ICSO, Jack s primary work responsibilities consist of coordinating programs for inmates to attain their GED while incarcerated. Jack s best asset is his knack of taking on large projects and condensing them into manageable segments for fellow employees. Over the years, Jack has recognized the need for extracting data from inmate databases to produce necessary jail reports, which are used by several entitles throughout Ingham County. A few of the key programs we use at ICSO are the Ingham County Judicial Report, Overcrowding Jail Report, and Early Earned Release Date calculation program. Because of Jack s ability to use these programs to create reports, we have avoided numerous hours manually calculating jail release dates; researching and creating daily arraignment lists; and coordinating and tracking inmate cell assignments. Jack also created a database that give Corrections Deputies the ability to complete their daily log on computers verses hand writing them in duplicate along with several other routine documentation forms. Jack produces a report for Ingham County Judges on the progress inmates have shown in obtaining their GED and court ordered programs such as C.A.T.S and Thinking Matters. While Jack Murray is not out chasing criminals in a police car or solving high profile investigations, his behind the scenes work with data are critical to the daily operations at the ICSO. As a result of Jack Murray s commitment to the ICSO, Jack Murray is being awarded the Employee of the Year. 6

7 JACKSON NATIONAL DEPUTY OF THE YEAR Sergeant Daniel Sump Sergeant Sump took on the onerous task of making the FBR Program functional for the Sheriff s Office. He educated himself on how the program worked by contacting local agencies that were already using it. He implemented it first among the Transport Unit and worked out the bugs. After that, he assisted St. Flint and Lt. Elliott in going live with it in Delhi. There were many issues that came to light, and St. Sump worked through them all. He is the go-to person with the FBR Program and has been able to keep us up and running since its start. As a result of Sgt. Sump s initiative and effort, the Sheriff s Office has become more efficient in submitting, reviewing and processing reports. By going to FBR, the Sheriff s Office has saved money by drastically reducing the amount of paper and printer ink used in generating reports. On top of this, Sgt. Sump kept up with his daily duties with the Transport Unit and backfilling country patrol. 7

The search warrant was executed and a methamphetamine lab was seized along with approx. 150 gm of finished methamphetamine product was seized. The cook however, escaped before the search warrant was executed. The following day Detectives walked through warrants on all the subjects including the at large cook. Metro contacted a Deputy from ICSO to attempt to get the subject arrested. Deputies set up on the 32

33 subjects house in Delhi and made an arrest on the cook but, not till after he was able to run into his house and hide finished methamphetamine product. The next day Metro received more information on that residence from 1st District Fugitive Team. With this information Metro obtained a search warrant for the cooks house in Delhi. In the house Detectives located methamphetamine components and approx. 2 gm of finished methamphetamine product. August of 2014 Metro Detective s utilized a confidential informant to set up a 10 lb. marijuana deal. The suspect was followed from his house in Delta Township into Bath where he was stopped by MSP. 10 lbs. of marijuana was seized from the stop. Metro then obtained a search warrant for the residence in Delta and approx. 10 more lbs. of marijuana was seized and approx. $50, of cash was forfeited. On August 27, 2014 Metro Detectives, in cooperation with Homeland Security Investigations, worked an interstate marijuana dealer operating throughout Michigan, (to include the Upper Peninsula) and Illinois. The subject was picking up raw marijuana and delivering marijuana wax to and from multiple dispensaries. After making his pickup/drop off, a traffic stop was conducted by 1st District HST. The subject was found to be in possession of 3 lbs. of high grade marijuana. This information was used to obtain a search warrant on his pick-up/drop off site on Okemos Rd. A result of the search warrant found a marijuana shop, marijuana plants, marijuana grow equipment, marijuana wax, processed marijuana, drug paraphernalia, and Us Currency. September of 2014 Metro was contacted by ICSO/FBI reference prostitution / human trafficking case they had been investigating. ICSO/FBI advised he had set up a date with a 15 year old prostitute in Lansing and he needed an undercover officer to carry out the task. ICSO advised that he ultimately wanted to be able to charge the prostitute s pimp. The undercover officer responded to the apartment in Lansing and was able to convince both the prostitute and Pimp to leave with him. During the drive the undercover officer was able to get the prostitute to admit to the whole operation that locked the pimp into the conspiracy. During the drive the undercover officer pretended to have engine trouble and pulled over where both the prostitute and pimp were taken into custody by federal agents and county detectives. On November 3, 2014, TCM Officers preformed a knock and talk at an City of East Lansing Residence. This investigation began as an anonymous tip of possible drug sales and illegal activity. Multiple trash pulls were performed; surveillance and traffic stops were also done. During the knock and talk, a consent search was done. This led to the seizure of just over $3,000.00; almost 9 ounces of processed Marijuana, almost 4 grams of MDMA, 4 pistols and 9 long guns. On October 3, 2014, TCM Officers began making controlled purchases of Marijuana from two suspects from the Williamston area.

35 DETECTIVE BUREAU - SEXUAL ASSAULT INVESTIGATIONS Involved in the investigation of 95 cases. Child Physical and Sexual Abuse / Adult CSC (91 cases) Child Death (1 case) Administrative (2 cases) Jail Death (1 case) Conducted 54 forensic interviews Assisted other agencies (17 cases) 14 cases sentenced (7 to prison, 6 to jail, and 1 juvenile) 14 cases pending court proceedings 27 Cases still in investigation Case Highlights: A 43 year old, pleaded guilty to CSC and child abuse in Mecosta County and was sentenced to 1 year jail, 5 years probation and lifetime sex offender registry. 2 years ago I assisted by conducting forensic interviews of all seven of his children that were residing in Foster care in Ingham County. The charges were initially denied. The suspect tortured and abused all of his children for years. After pleading with prosecutors, the case got some attention. The suspect was arrested and convicted; a victory for those children. I assisted MSP with this case. A 36 year old, was found guilty on 3 counts of CSC at jury trial. He was sentenced by Judge Draganchuk to months prison. The suspect sexually abused his stepdaughter over a 4 year period. This case crossed jurisdictional lines; the child was abused in both Lansing Twp. and Meridian Twp. A 38 year old, pleaded guilty to CSC and was sentenced to 1 year jail, 5 years probation and lifetime sex offender registry. This case was very challenging. He sexually abused his step-daughter and she was so traumatized that she couldn't talk during the forensic interview about the crime. This sentence, while painful because he deserves more, is appropriate for the child so that she doesn't have to testify. He thought he got away with it in the beginning, so arresting him and now have him register for life, (but preventing testimony) is the right outcome. Another thing is he is not allowed to date/marry anyone with children or live with children as a probation condition. This case began with Williamston PD. A 33 year old, pleaded guilty to CSC and was sentenced to 1 year jail, 5 years probation and lifetime sex offender registry. She sexually abused her boyfriend's son and engaged in sexually explicit messaging. This case began with Leslie PD. A 64 year old, pleaded guilty to CSC and was sentenced to months prison. He sexually abused his granddaughter. During the investigation I was able to locate 3 prior act victims (his two nephews and a niece.) Trial began with strong testimony. Just as the Prosecutor announced the victim would be the next witness, the suspect clutched his chest and was taken to the hospital for chest pains. In the best interest of all and to 35

36 avoid mistrial, the Prosecutor allowed for a plea during the trial. He will likely spend the rest of his life in prison. This case began with MSP. A 40 year old, was sentenced to years prison for the sexual abuse of his 11 year old daughter. When the family lived in both Ingham and Livingston County, the suspect "punished" his daughter (for normal childhood misbehavior) by forcing her to take soap and his penis in her mouth. He forced oral sex and ejaculated in her mouth on multiple occasions over a several year period. This investigation began in Livingston County where they obtained a confession from the suspect. He was also sentenced in Livingston County to years, concurrent. A 17 year old, was sentenced on CSC and Larceny to 10 months jail, 60 months strict probation and sex offender registry. This report began with a 15 year old victim who reported being raped by the suspect at a party. After a lengthy investigation, I uncovered 3 other victims. One was his younger sister who he forced into oral sex. The suspect also committed a Home Invasion and Larceny (these had been previously unsolved ICSO cases). The suspect belonged to a group of friends (gang) he called "Team Nasty" "Professional Booty Eaters." They talked online about guns, drugs and sexual activity with underage girls. To complicate things, the suspect had subsequently turned 17 and the majority of the crimes (including the initial reporting rape and the oral sex with his sister) all occurred when he was a juvenile. The prosecutor was able to best charge with a larceny and CSC 3rd (when he was 17 he had sex with a 14 year old.) So, he was charged as an adult. While this sentence is quite low, the charged victim did not want to go to trial and the victim's mother agreed with extending treatment (rehabilitation) to this offender. A 31 year old, pleaded no contest to the rape of his 7 year old niece. The victim told a classmate when she was 14 years old about the rape. Her mother filed a police report the day she found out about the crime. That was in 2011, when the child was 14 years old. A law enforcement investigation began and subsequently felony warrants were issued. When Deputies went to arrest the suspect on the CSC warrant, the suspect resisted arrest and assaulted deputies, resulting in the suspect being tased. A long court process followed, because the suspect claimed to be incompetent. After 2 evaluations and a hearing, he was found competent for trial. Ultimately, the suspect pleaded guilty to criminal sexual conduct and r&o. The victim is now a 17 year old young woman. After years of this process, she simply wanted this to be over and did not want a trial. The suspect was sentenced to 1 year jail, 5 years probation and sex offender registry. Once out of jail, the suspect contacted the victim. He was sent to jail for 4-15 years for probation violation. A 37 year old, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 9 to 40 years for the sexual abuse of his step-daughter and niece. The reports were taken in 2003 and 2006 by the Sheriff's Office, but were not prosecuted. In 2012 a family member requested a copy of the police report and Detectives became aware of the cases. Detectives located a third victim who disclosed sexual abuse as well. After a lengthy investigation and then subsequent review by the Prosecutor's Office, a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was extradited from California. Prior to the prelim, the suspect attempted to intimidate witnesses into not appearing. All of the victim's ultimately testified and the case was bound over on 10 counts of CSC. The suspect pleaded guilty just prior to trial. Trial could have brought more prison time, however the victim's preferred a plea in which he 36
