On-Duty Cop Arrested For Selling Drugs In Uniform From Marked Police Car

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


An Indiana police officer was arrested on Thursday for selling drugs to an informant and undercover FBI agent while he was on-duty, in uniform, and in his marked police car.

Officer Donald Jordan was taken into custody at the Anderson Police Department at around 3 p.m. for possession with intent to distribute hydrocodone and possession with intent to distribute Xanax, the U.S. Attorney’s office said.

Prosecutors also maintain that Jordan bartered sex for drugs and had been under investigation by the FBI for several months after someone filed a complaint against him in July 2014.

The day before his arrest, Jordan was parked at a gas station in the 900 block of 38th Street in Anderson on December 9 when the informant introduced him to the undercover FBI agent.

Jordan inquired about their plans for the night and was told the women would be partying, prosecutors said. He then asked where they would be drinking and the undercover agent told him they would be partying “harder than that.”

After Jordan pressed for more details, prosecutors say the undercover agent told him they did not trust the police.

The officer reportedly responded by telling her that he is “a better criminal than he is a cop” and that he “is corrupt.” He then arranged to purchase 15 Xanax pills for the women.

After they gave him the money, prosecutors say Jordan left to get the drugs and met the women latter at a business – while still in his marked patrol car – and gave the pills to the undercover FBI agent.

“Allegations of wrongdoing by police officers undermine the public’s trust and confidence in law enforcement,” Anderson Police Chief Larry Crenshaw said. “Th[is] is not acceptable. As law enforcement officers who are sworn to defend and uphold the law, we must maintain a higher level of public trust.

Jordan was arrested the day following the drug transaction and is now in the custody of the U.S. Marshals on federal possession and intent to distribute charges. He faces up to 15 years in prison.

The incident illustrates the hypocrisy of the drug war and shows that brazen officers aren’t above using their positions to subvert the very laws that they are supposed to enforce.

Maybe as a result of his arrest, Jordan will think about all the individuals he is likely responsible for sending to prison over the same “crimes.”
