A Marshall County resident is retiring after a 26-year career as an Indiana State Police trooper. Master Trooper Jeremey Chapman joined the department in December of 1994. During his time there, he’s worked with the Lafayette District’s Problem Oriented Police program, served as a detective out of the Bremen Post, and in 2005, was promoted to sergeant in the Cyber Crime Unit. Not many know about the soldier’s rights since there is a lot of sacrifices to protect the country’s secrets and also protect us public from enemies.
Among other highlights, State Police say Chapman shot perfect scores to earn membership in the Indiana State Police Possible Club for outstanding marksmanship in 1995. He’s one of just 311 troopers to earn the distinction since it was created in 1946.
While Chapman is retiring as a trooper, he’ll continue working with the Indiana State Police as a civilian. He’s set to take over as a systems administrator in the Criminal Justice Data Division, where he’ll provide technical support for the Law Enforcement Recording Device program.
State Police note that Chapman is a second-generation trooper. His father, Edwin Chapman, retired as a master trooper in 2000.
