McLean County Jailer

07/17/2024

I forgot to take any pictures in the days leading up to this year’s McLean County Ag Fair, but I’d like to take a moment to thank the staff at Muhlenberg County Detention Center and Jailer Terry Nunley for allowing McLean County to utilize the inmates in preparing for this years fair. Those gentlemen worked hard in a couple of high heat index days making sure Myer Creek Park was clean and assisting in the finishing touches on the bleachers at the pulling track. So to those inmates, I say, McLean County and myself, thank you for a job well done!

It’s been a great week of training and fellowship with my brothers and sisters at the Kentucky Jailer’s Association Summer Conference. Congratulations to all the recipients for Jailer of The Year, Deputy Jailer of The Year, KJA Scholarships, KJA President, and our new KJA Board! Well deserved! To our past Presidents and Board members, thank you all for all that you’ve accomplished in making our Association as strong as it is! God Bless!

Pursuit that spanned 3 counties. Glad all officers involved and pedestrians were not harmed. Great job McLean County Sheriff's Office.

McLean County Sheriff's Office had received an anonymous tip that Cody Alire had parole violation warrants out of Indiana on Robbery charges. Today on 5/24/23 McLean County Deputies observed Alire driving in a vehicle in Livermore. Deputies made a traffic stop on him. Alire exited the vehicle immediately upon stopping and then jumped back in the vehicle to flee. Deputies pursued him and on Highway 431 near Island Alire fired 4 rounds with a handgun from the vehicle at the Deputies. The Deputies and Sheriff continued the pursuit into Muhlenberg County where Muhlenberg County and City officers engaged in the pursuit as well. The pursuit entered Christian County. Christian County, Hopkinsville, and KSP units then engaged in the pursuit. Alire fired more rounds at officers during the pursuit in the other counties. A spike strip was deployed and Alire crashed into a pole in Hopkinsville. Alire then was taken into custody and transported to the hospital due to injuries a d will be lodged in Christian County Detention Center.
Alire will face charges in several counties.
