ISP First Sergeant Paul Hansard Receives Award  

0
The American Association of Police Polygraphist recently held their annual conference in Houston, Texas. A highlight of the conference was the awards ceremony. Five year AAPP member, Indiana State Police First Sergeant Paul Hansard, was presented the Region II Richard O. Arthur Directors Award for his significant contribution in a 2016 Spencer, IN murder case.

In March, 2016 Indiana State Police polygraph examiner, F/Sgt. Paul Hansard was contacted to conduct a specific issue polygraph examination on a suspect to determine his truthfulness as to whether or not the suspect caused a female to go missing.  During the course of the investigation F/Sgt. Hansard determined the suspect was deceptive to the main issue. A second polygraph examination was utilized to determine the female’s location. The suspect displayed strong reactions to one particular area and during the interview concerning these deceptive results the suspect told F/Sgt. where the female’s body was located. The information gained from the polygraph examination and post-test interview led investigators to the female’s body.
The suspect was ultimately sentenced to a 60 year prison sentence for murder.

“The information gleaned from the suspect in our case by First Sergeant Hansard proved to be instrumental in securing a conviction,” stated Owen County Prosecutor Donald R. VanDerMoere II.   “I and the other citizens of Owen County owe Paul a huge debt of gratitude.  It gives me great pleasure to see such a diligent, hardworking and professional officer like Paul receive the recognition he deserves.”

The objectives of the AAPP is:
A. To encourage and develop cooperation among all American Law Enforcement Organizations in the application and utilization of accepted polygraph techniques.
B. To develop the highest standards of proficiency in the polygraph profession by fostering and encouraging scientific training and research through advanced study and progressive techniques.
C. To promote and maintain the highest standards of ethics, integrity, honor and conduct in the polygraph profession.
D. To provide an opportunity and forum for the exchange of information regarding polygraph experiences, studies and research.
E. To cooperate with other national, regional and state polygraph associations and other professional organizations in matters of mutual interest and of benefit to the polygraph profession.

First Sergeant Hansard is a ten year Indiana State Police veteran. He resides in Delaware County with his three children.

Aces set for MVC Championship

WICHITA, Kan. – Wichita State scored five runs in the first inning and held on from that point to take a 5-0 win over the University of Evansville softball team on Sunday afternoon.

The Purple Aces (20-32, 11-15 MVC) will be the #5 seed for this week’s Missouri Valley Conference Tournament in Normal, Ill.  Wichita State finishes the season at 31-19 and 16-9 in the league.

Danielle Cassidy made the start for UE, giving up the five runs over two innings of work.  Emily Lockhart had another nice outing in relief, tossing four scoreless innings while allowing three hits.

Brittany Hay, Chandra Parr and Susan Norris picked up the Aces’ three hits on the day.

Wichita did all of its scoring in the first as Madison Perrigan started it off with an RBI double.  Another big hit came off of McKenzie Adams’ bat as she plated two runs with a double as the Shockers took a 5-0 advantage.

That would be the scoring for the day as WSU took the 5-0 win.  They recorded eight hits on the day while UE finished with three.

In a nice gesture prior to the contest, the Shockers honored UE’s nine seniors and presented each with a rose as they took the field for their final regular-season contest.

Indiana Conservation Officers are investigating three men who were stranded while kayaking in the Patoka River. (Dubois County)

On Sunday, May 7, at approximately 5:20 pm­­­­­­­­­­­­­, Brandon M. Jochim, 18, of Jasper, Nicholas C. Day, 18, of Jasper, and Seth L. Hill, 18, of Jasper, were kayaking in the Patoka River downstream of County Road 300 North in Dubois County.  One of the kayaks overturned upon hitting a low lying limb at water level.

The individual who overturned his kayak advised it was his first time kayaking.  The area of the Patoka River that the men were in was flooded with a strong current. All three individuals became stranded in the water with only two kayaks left for them to hold on to.  The third kayak drifted downstream in the current. The boys were stranded in the water for approximately 1.5 hours, and were not wearing life jackets.  Conservation Officers Kyle Hembree, Jonathan Watkins, Logan Hodges, and Tony Mann were able to rescue the boys from the water by jon boat. They were met with an ambulance and transported to Jasper Memorial Hospital.  There were no major injuries sustained from the incident.

Responding agencies included Indiana Conservation Officers, Dubois County Sheriff’s Department, Jasper Police Department, Jasper Fire Department, and Life Flight of Evansville.

Indiana Conservation Officers strongly encourage the use of life jackets while enjoying any activity out on the water.
