Portsmouth Police Reports: Child in Danger

May 29, 2021

If we are to have Safer/Stronger communities, we have to have strong partnerships with our local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. This holds true for the other governmental agencies, private businesses/organizations, and the community that we serve. We have to strengthen and grow those relationships to better serve our community.

The law enforcement agencies/units that participated in this countywide operation were; Scioto County Adult Probation, Scioto County Sheriff’s Office, Portsmouth Police Department, Ohio State Highway Patrol, U.S. Marshals Fugitive Apprehension Task Force, Southern Ohio Drug Task Force, and Portsmouth Fire Departments Tactical Medics.

The non-law enforcement participants were Counseling Center, Hope Source, and Shawnee Counseling Center.

In total, there were 91 law enforcement and other personnel that participated in the first day of the operation.

Chief Probation Officer Shawn Davis provided a complete list of probationers as well as non-compliant probationers, that are registered through his office. The list was reviewed by detectives from the sheriff’s office, police department, and drug task force for individuals that they had received intel on for continued criminal activity. The U.S. Marshall Fugitive Task Force was given a target list of individuals with active criminal warrants.

Law Enforcement personnel assisted Probation Officers with the probation checks. If ongoing criminal / drug activity was detected during the probation check, the investigation was transferred to either a detective or the Southern Ohio Drug Task Force for follow-up. This same procedure was followed by the U.S. Marshalls Fugitive Apprehension Task Force locating ongoing criminal/drug activity.

Chief Probation Officer Davis advised that most of the probationers were offered treatment in lieu of jail. The Counseling Center, Hope Source, and Shawnee Counseling Center assisted with getting the individuals into treatment.

This operation resulted in the arrest of 37 individuals, the recovery of stolen property, drugs, and a firearm, most of which have already resulted in additional charges.

The additional cases will be forwarded to the Scioto County Prosecutor’s Office to be presented to a Scioto County Grand Jury.
