DECATUR COUNTY — Indiana State Police-Versailles Post detectives arrested a dispatcher from the Decatur County Sheriff’s Office Thursday on two felony charges related to the dispatcher accessing an internal law enforcement system and releasing case sensitive information to the public.
The investigation began when the Decatur County Sheriff’s Office contacted the Indiana State Police upon receiving information of the offense, said Sgt. Stephen Wheeles, Indiana State Police spokesman.
During the investigation, it was determined that Heidi Miracle, 42, Holton, accessed the law enforcement system Thursday morning and had taken a recording of a video obtained during a criminal investigation. She then allegedly shared the video she obtained to individuals outside of law enforcement via a messaging app. Miracle also is accused of posting a recording on one of her social media pages, Wheeles said.
The investigation led to detectives arresting Miracle on felony charges of official misconduct and offense against intellectual property.
She was booked into the Decatur County Jail on the charges pending an initial appearance in the Decatur Circuit Court.
