A former sheriff from southern Indiana is facing 25 felony charges after allegedly spending hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars on luxury purchases including vacations, vehicles and cigars.
Jamey Noel, 52, along with his wife, Misty, 50, and daughter, Kasey Noel, 27, are charged with a spate of felonies for spending as much as $5million on the credit cards Jamey had opened in the name of the volunteer fire agency he ran, authorities said.
The specific expenditures allegedly made by various members of the Noel family are nearly too numerous to count, but include $56,000 on luxury cigars, more than $300,000 on vacation and travel, $25,000 on a small plane, in addition to cosmetic procedures, tanning, clothing, and vape products.
The figures were included in recently revealed search warrants for the family's homes and cars.
Sheriff Noel became a local face about town when he appeared on Season 1 of the A&E show '60 Days In,' in which the Clark County prison critically examined its policies and treatment of inmates after volunteers are incarcerated undercover as prisoners for 60 days.
The Clark County Jail was back in national headlines four years later, when more than 20 female prisoners alleged in federal court they were attacked, harassed and sexually assaulted after a deputy, David Lowe, sold the key to the women’s wing for $1,000 to male inmates. That led lawsuits that implicated Noel in the attacks.
All three family members have pleaded not guilty. Each of them also posted all-cash bails in the tens of thousands. A special judge and special prosecutor have been appointed to the case.
In court filings, prosecutors have alleged the family has refused to cooperate with investigators. Some 50 search warrants have also been executed throughout the massive probe, including searches of the family's multiple homes...

Corruption can reside locally on in a large centralized govt.
No wonder the Mob is out of business. The can’t compete with government
Jamey, Misty, and Kasey. What? No Tiffany in the gang?
Where is Buford Pusser when you need him?
How was the crime?
Did crime go down and perps go to jail?
Did people feel safe going out for a walk?
Maybe they got their money’s worth.
for that much money I would have thought the dark haired one spend some on trying to look good. kinda looks like a man with big lips.
We are going to have to start hanging thieves.
They are driving the price of everything up.
Lol
No doubt about it!
400k is a very small part of 5 million.
Where is the other 90?
Probably all of the 10% here and there will never be asked about.
Glamorous = wears too much make-up
The clown lips are a giveaway, every time. Glamorous?
Not a bit!
Five million on a volunteer fire agency? Our local community volunteer fire department has been a going thing for about 70 years. They haven’t spent that much money over the entire period.
What a den of pure greedy scumbags. Maybe they are too stupid to know they were going to be caught someday.
Lock ‘em up and throw the keys away.
Who is that - the mother or the daughter?
It is bizarre that they would think they could get away with something like this. It is also bizarre that they did get away with for as long as they did.
Sheriff of Nottingham County!
