JOHNSON GRADUATES Deputy Marshal Francis Dean Johnson, of Walkerton, was among 82 officers who graduated from the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy, at 1:00 p.m. Friday, September 27. The Academy is located onehalf mile southwest of Plainfield. Mr. Richard P. Good, Jr., Executive Director of the Indiana Prosecuting Attorney’s Council, was the principal speaker at the event. Colonel Arthur R. Raney, Jr., the Academy’s Executive Director; and Conservation Officer Thomas D. Lahay. Department of Natural Resources. Class President, also addressed the graduating officers, their families and guests. Indiana requires all non-elected law enforcement officers to successfully complete basic training within their first year of service. Failure to complete the training results in the officer losing the power of arrest. It is interesting to note that tax money is not used to support this program. There is no charge to the officer or department; instead, the training is funded through court costs paid by traffic violators and persons charged with criminal offenses. In line with the Academy’s motto, “For All The People”, civic groups and families are invited to tour the facility any Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Evening tours can also be arranged.
