Governor Mitchell E. Daniels, Jr. appointed Bruce Lemmon as Commissioner effective January 17, 2011. In addition to serving on various Committees and Boards, Commissioner Lemmon is an active member of the American Correctional Association (ACA), the Indiana Criminal Justice Association (ICJA), and the Association of State Correctional Administrators (ASCA). Before being appointed to Commissioner, Bruce Lemmon served as the Superintendent of the Putnamville Correctional Facility in Greencastle, IN. Letter from the Commissioner Greetings: We have had many successes in the past year and Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) has started off strong in 2012. To name a few, we achieved the highest honor with the American Correctional Association (ACA) by earning the Golden Eagle Award, shown a reduction in the rate of recidivism for adult offenders, and expanded utilization of Community Corrections to help divert lower-risk defendants from prison. The list of accomplishments only continues to grow. In 2011, the IDOC was recognized as a national leader in prison sustainability and efficiency, receiving several environmental awards. The Department and staff have embraced the greening concept and made great strides in correctional sustainability. Some of these initiatives include but are not limited to rain water collection, recycling, wind and solar energy collection, major new lighting initiatives, water conservation, and bio mass boilers. These efforts have produced nearly 700 offender jobs within the facilities, providing offenders with marketable, green job skills that that can be utilized in our communities after their release. It is because of these greening efforts that GreenPrisons.org chose Indiana as the location for the first National Symposium on Sustainable Corrections in 2011 and will return in 2012. Through a shared vision with the Veterans In Partnership Healthcare Network, we opened America’s first prison-based housing unit dedicated to providing specialized programming and transition services to offenders who served in the armed forces. The success of the Indiana | 5 Veterans Education and Transition (INVET) unit has expanded the Department’s collaboration with many state and federal agencies and several veteran services organization. The INVET unit has surpassed our expectations, and the residents speak of a respect and camaraderie that has naturally developed among them and a feeling of hope and opportunity that the unit brings. Also in 2011, we also dedicated Indiana’s first museum honoring the history of corrections and criminal punishment in Indiana. Staff at the Correctional Training Institute and around the state put a great deal of time and effort digging through historical documents, photos, and archives to uncover IDOC’s past. IDOC’s 2011 successes would not have been possible without everyone’s hard work, dedication, and commitment. In the corrections field, our jobs are oftentimes thankless, but it is always rewarding when a major goal is reached and we can see the actual benefit of sacrifices made, late hours worked, and challenges overcome. I am excited to learn what 2012 will unfold for IDOC and the successes our team will achieve as we move forward. It is an honor and pleasure to serve as your Commissioner and it is very humbling to be part of the Indiana Department of Correction family.

  • History of the U.S. Attorneys
    Bicentennial Celebration of the United States Attorneys 1789 - 1989 "The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor– indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one." QUOTED FROM STATEMENT OF MR. JUSTICE SUTHERLAND, BERGER V. UNITED STATES, 295 U. S. 88 (1935) Note: The information in this document was compiled from historical records maintained by the Offices of the United States Attorneys and by the Department of Justice. Every effort has been made to prepare accurate information. In some instances, this document mentions officials without the “United States Attorney” title, who nevertheless served under federal appointment to enforce the laws of the United States in federal territories prior to statehood and the creation of a federal judicial district. INTRODUCTION In this, the Bicentennial Year of the United States Constitution, the people of America find cause to celebrate the principles formulated at the inception of the nation Alexis de Tocqueville called, “The Great Experiment.” The experiment has worked, and the survival of the Constitution is proof of that.
