1974 – present, era by era · Osceola PD and Sheriff postings checked

No Osceola Police Department or St. Joseph County Sheriff cold-case board for this ground exists to read: the town's four-officer department posts no cold-case list, and the county's cold cases run through the State Police list. The substitute board is therefore the ISP District 24 list itself, read by era as the row directs, with no era skipped. 1970s: one case on the list — McDonough, 1974, Clay Township (the county's only list case; not this ground). 1980s: two cases — Hulse, 1984, and Peltz, 1986, both Marshall County, the district's other county (ISP case pages live at in.gov/isp; Peltz is Case 24-29966; Hulse was abducted from her Argos home August 17, 1984 and found the next day, dead of blunt force trauma; the ISP renewed its appeal in August 2025). 1990s to the present: no case on the district list at all — and for Osceola and Penn Township, no case in any era. The working tip mechanism for this ground is printed so the article ends on an instrument, not a shrug: Crime Stoppers Michiana, (574) 288-7867 / (800) 600-7867, the number the IDOC cold-case deck itself carries. The board's emptiness for this ground is the finding, and it is the Crime leg's frame confirmed from a second instrument.
