Michael Perry
Prosecutor
Warrick County
County Prosecutor Michael Perry is the current elected Warrick County Prosecutor, finishing his third term in office. During these twelve years, he has conducted many trials, and has help to convict multiple defendants charged with murder, among other charges. Under his direction, the number of felony and misdemeanors filed has increased, resulting in more accountability for those responsible for committing crimes. Perry has also initiated several successful alternative sentencing programs in Warrick County, including a DUI Deferral program, an expanded Infraction Deferral Program, and a Misdemeanor Deferral Program.
The Warrick County Prosecutor’s Office places an emphasis on victim’s rights, and employs two Victim’s Rights Advocates. One of which handles all felony matters and the other oversees those victims affected by misdemeanor crimes.
The Prosecutor’s Office has also become an active partner with Warrick County Schools to ensure the safety of our students and to assist in enforcing educational truancy cases. The office is a firm believer in the need of education to help guarantee a better future for all.
The Warrick County Prosecutor Office has donated to various organizations benefiting our County, including but not limited to the Albion-Fellows Bacon Center, Boonville After Prom, Law Enforcement Training programs, has donated safety bollards for several of our local schools, and has given a $10,000 donation from its infraction deferral program to the Warrick County FOP for its Fallen Officer Memorial.
The Warrick County Prosecutor’s Office continues daily in its effort to ensure that Warrick County is a safe place to live, work and play. Our citizens’ safety is always our number one concern.
