Former Jay County Deputy Arrested on Warrant
News Release
KOKOMO — A former Jay County Deputy was arrested on a warrant following a lengthy investigation on Wednesday, Sept. 25.
According to an Indiana State Police press release, in February of this year, the ISP Fort Wayne Post was requested by the Jay County Sheriff to investigate the actions of one of their officers. Detective Matt Teusch began to investigate the alleged actions of Derek J. Bogenschutz, 36.
This investigation ultimately led to a warrant being issued this week for Level 6 Felony Identity Deception. Bogenschutz was arrested for this warrant in Miami County and is expected to be transported to Jay County this week to appear on this charge.
All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
