STATEMENT RELEASED ON CONFIDENTIAL INFORMANT LIST

(Wayne County, IN)--The Wayne County Sheriff’s Department yesterday issued a short statement after a list of alleged confidential informants in drug investigations was circulated on social media.  Here is the statement in its entirety:

 

A recent social media post has circulated an image falsely claiming to be an official document from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office and alleging to list confidential informants. This document is not property of the Sheriff’s Office, and the names listed are false. The post is misleading and irresponsible. The matter is being reviewed.
