VERSAILLES, Ind.–An Indiana State Police trooper, who spent 16 years of his career in Seymour, has been promoted to the position of Crime Scene Investigator. Sgt. Martin Mead was stationed at the Seymour ISP post from 1994 until its closure in 2010, and has been with the Versailles district the last eight years.
For much of his career, he has worked drug investigations as a member of the ISP Methamphetamine Suppression Team, which means he was often tasked with dismantling meth labs that involved dangerous chemical reactions.
Sgt. Mead’s new job responsibilities will include responding to scenes where criminal investigations are taking place, collecting evidence, and documenting the scene for the investigation. He will also be in charge of maintaining the evidence storage room for the Versailles District of the Indiana State Police.
