The incident took place in fall of last year
Detectives with the Indiana State Police-Versailles and Sellersburg Posts arrested a 22-year-old Clark County, Indiana man on a felony rape charge following an incident that occurred on the campus of Hanover College in Hanover, Indiana in the fall of 2023.
In September 2023, the Indiana State Police-Versailles Post was contacted to investigate an alleged sexual assault that occurred on the campus. The investigation by ISP Detectives indicated that in the early morning hours of September 17, 2023, a student at the college, Jackson Kruer, age 22, Clarksville, Indiana and an adult female student left an on-campus party together.
Both students walked to the female’s dorm room where she was allegedly sexually assaulted by Kruer. Kruer then left the dorm and returned to his on-campus residence. The female victim immediately reported the assault to campus security. Indiana State Police Investigators were soon contacted to investigate the incident.
At the conclusion of the investigation, the case was presented to the Jefferson County Prosecutor’s Office for review. As a result, a warrant for Rape, Level 3 Felony, was issued for Jackson Kruer.
Kruer was arrested today in Clark County, Indiana and transported to the Jefferson County (Indiana) Jail where he was incarcerated pending an initial appearance in court.
Indiana State Police Investigators were assisted in the investigation by the Hanover College Security Department and the Jefferson County Prosecutor’s Office.
Under the Law, criminal charges are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
