On Thursday, September 5, after a lengthy investigation by Clinton County Detective Sergeant Dan Roudebush, an arrest warrant was issued by the Clinton County Prosecutor’s Office for 21-year-old Ethan Wiles of Lafayette, for one count of Rape, a Level 3 Felony. Earlier this afternoon, Roudebush arrested Wiles at his home, with the assistance of the Tippecanoe County Sheriff’s Office. Wiles was booked into the Clinton County Jail without incident.
Sheriff Rich Kelly would like to acknowledge the dedicated service of detectives. “I commend Sergeant Roudebush for his thorough investigation and his professional demeanor in handling a difficult situation. I also want to thank Sheriff Goldsmith for Tippecanoe County’s assistance in executing the warrant.”
