Investigations

The Logansport Police Department is comprised of three investigative divisions. These are the Adult Investigations Division, the Juvenile Investigations Division, and the Cass County Drug Task Force.

• Juvenile Investigations
  The Juvenile Investigations Division investigates all crimes committed by or against anyone under the age of eighteen.
  
  Members of the Juvenile Investigations Division are specially trained in sex offenses against children and also receive special training in the investigation of child death cases.
  
  The Juvenile Investigations Division is staffed with two detectives who work closely with the Indiana Division of Family and Children and the Family Opportunity Center.  

• Adult Investigations
  The Adult Investigation Division primarily investigates cases of robberies, burglaries, fraud, forgery, thefts, battery, auto-theft, and death investigation cases. Many other types of case are also investigated.
  
  The Adult Investigation Division is currently staffed with three detectives. The division regularly assists the Cass County Drug Task Force with their investigations. The division also works closely with the Cass County Prosecutors Office. Detectives also are communicating and sharing information on a daily basis with other law enforcement officials from surrounding communities in attempts to solve crimes. All detectives are assigned an on call status for one week periods on a rotating basis.

• Drug Task Force
  The Cass County Drug Task Force investigates all significant narcotics cases in Logansport and Cass County. The DTF is comprised of members of the Logansport Police Department, Cass County Sheriff's Department, and the Indiana State Police. The DTF also works closely with the Cass County Prosecutor's Office and numerous surrounding county narcotics units. The DTF is a joint effort among many arms of the Criminal Justice System.
  
  The DTF has been very successful in removing large quantities of illegal narcotics off of the streets of Logansport and Cass County. The "war on drugs" is one that citizens cannot afford to give up on. Persons who are addicted to illegal narcotics only further strain the Criminal Justice System by committing numerous types of other crimes. Lastly, social services are also affected by this increase in criminal behavior.
