Former Rushville Police Officer Todd Click Released on Own Recognizance After Arrest

Former Rushville police officer Todd Click has found himself at the center of a legal storm after being arrested on charges of official misconduct, forgery, and falsifying child abuse or neglect information. Click, who also served as an Indiana State Police agent and Department of Child Services investigator, was released on his own recognizance following his arrest on Friday.

The allegations against Click stem from his supposed fabrication of DCS reports detailing visits and phone calls to troubled families. These families have come forward to claim that Click never actually contacted them or visited their homes, leading to accusations of deceit and manipulation.

Click’s involvement in high-profile cases, such as the investigation into the 2017 double murder of Abigail Williams and Liberty German, adds another layer of complexity to his legal troubles. As part of a special investigative unit looking into potential ties between the girls’ murders and individuals with connections to Odinism and ritual killings, Click’s testimony and actions have come under scrutiny.

The upcoming trial for the Delphi murders, scheduled to begin on October 14th, has been shrouded in controversy due to Click’s involvement and the restrictions placed on news media access. Special Judge Fran Gull has limited reporting to note-taking with pen and paper only, further adding to the intrigue surrounding this high-profile case.

With pre-trial hearings and conferences set for the coming months, Todd Click’s legal saga is far from over. As more details emerge and the trial date approaches, the public will be watching closely to see how this former law enforcement officer’s actions will impact the outcome of these complex legal proceedings.
