Warren County Citizens and Business Owners,

You may be receiving a letter from the Indiana Sheriff’s Association asking for your support by becoming a member of the Indiana Sheriff’s Association. This mailing is legitimate and is endorsed by Sheriff Pruitt. Joining the association is voluntary, and citizens do not have to join unless they choose to do so.
The letter of invitation is the only way used to invite citizens to become members of the Association. NO telephone solicitation or other methods are used to solicit members as are currently being used by some organizations. See the information below to learn more about the organization.
The Indiana Sheriffs’ Association is a nonprofit, professional, educational, and service organization dedicated to improving the Criminal Justice System through education, training, service, and the protection of the lives and property of the citizens of Indiana.
The membership program was instituted to provide citizens with an opportunity to lend their support of crime prevention and awareness programs, promote public safety, provide more and improved training for Sheriffs and their personnel plus support the Summer Youth Leadership Camps and College Scholarships for teenagers interested in law enforcement that are provided by the Association.
If you don’t receive an application by mail, you can call or stop by the Sheriff’s Office to obtain one or visit the Indiana Sheriffs’ Association website at www.indianasheriffs.org (http://www.indianasheriffs.org/) to join. All members will receive a membership card, two star decals and releases of the newsletter.

This Association is formed for the purpose of promoting the general public welfare through the cooperation of the different sheriffs and deputy sheriffs in the State of Indiana in the performance of their duties.

SCAM ALERT:

We're seeing an increase in scams where callers claim to be from a certain law enforcement agency and demand money for bail. This is a fraud targeting our community and the surrounding areas.

Yesterday, our office received a call from a couple residing in the State of Michigan. They reported receiving calls from an individual identifying himself as "Lt. Adams," claiming to be with the Warren County, Indiana, Sheriff’s Department. He allegedly requested that they pay the bond for an inmate named "O’Shae Coach." Fortunately, they terminated the call. Our Office contacted the provided phone number, and a male identified himself as "Sheriff’s Dept" and "Lt. Adams". However, he ended the call when we inquired about his department affiliation. The phone number has an Indiana area code and a Rushville prefix. Rush County confirmed that the number is not within their system.

How to avoid this scam:

Hang up immediately: Do not engage with callers who demand immediate payment, especially through unusual methods.

Verify independently: If someone calls claiming to be a deputy with our office, hang up and call the Sheriff's Office number to confirm their identity. Do not trust the phone number on your caller ID.

DISCLAIMER:

The Warren County Sheriff's Office will NEVER demand payment for bail via gift cards, green dot cards, Bitcoin, or other virtual currency. All legitimate bail payments happen in person at the Warren County Jail or Clerk's Office.

The Warren County Sheriff's Office is proud to participate in this event. The "Shop with a Cop" program is a collaborative effort involving law enforcement agencies from both Warren and Fountain Counties. We aim to raise funds to provide a holiday shopping trip for less fortunate children, often including clothing and toys, which they might otherwise be unable to afford. It also serves as a positive interaction between children and police officers.

If you would like to make a donation to support this cause, please get in touch with Sheriff Anthony Pruitt or any Warren County Deputy. Shop with a cop will take place on Friday December 5th, 2025.

Please join us in keeping the family of Corporal Blake Reynolds and the Delaware County Sheriff's Office in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Our deepest condolences go out to his loved ones and colleagues as they mourn his passing.
