The Vigo County Prosecutor's Office in partnership with ISU’s criminal justice program, the high tech crime unit is led by two ISU professors and comprised of eight criminal justice majors who work on gathering the cyber evidence. This unit also features four interns who are students but not sworn-in investigators who are responsible for
listening to jail calls. With the amount of cell phones and computers that people own, a large majority of cases involve some type of digital evidence. But law enforcement didn’t necessarily have the time or know how to extract data from computers and cell phones as part of an investigation in a timely manner. That’s where the new high tech crime units like the one in Vigo County come in. Each county in Indiana will be part of a unit where they can submit devices as part of an investigation. Vigo County Prosecutor Terry Modesitt said the turnaround time for processing
digital evidence will be dramatically shortened thanks to this new unit.
