In an effort to recover 3.1 million dollars in restitution from Jamey Noel’s criminal case, Judge Larry Medlock has ordered the collected items to be sold at auction on January 1, 2025. Funds garnered from the auction will be split and distributed as follows:
- $2,870,924 to Utica Township Volunteers Firefighters Association
- $173,155.07 to Indiana Department of Revenue
- $61,190.77 to Clark County Sheriff’s Department
- $435,245.60 to Indiana State Police
Many items have been held back for the trial involving Jamey Noel's wife Misty and daughter Kasey. Noel was sentenced to 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to 27 felonies of theft and fraud. 3 of the 15 years were suspended to probation, and he could even be released in as early as 9 ½ years with good behavior.
The property seized by the Indiana State Police will be auctioned off by Freije & Freije Auctioneers. Online and live bidding are both available, and the physical location for the auction will be 2340 W. US Highway 40, Clayton, Indiana. Doors open at 8 a.m. ET., and the live auction begins at 10 a.m. with a 10% buyer’s fee and a $500 deposit to bid online. Online bidders bidding on Freijeauctioneers.com will pay a 2.5% online bidding fee, and bidders using Proxibid will undergo a 3% online fee.
There are 85 firearms for sale, mainly including handguns, shotguns and rifles. Also up for grabs are shoes, custom suits, pants and two Rolex watches. The watches already hold bids at $9,000 and $10,500.
