Another grooming arrest for Indianola man who had EMT license suspended
INDIANOLA, Iowa — An Indianola man already facing grooming charges has been arrested again on the same charge in a separate case.
Jeremy McCormick, 37, was arrested last week and charged with grooming, a Class D felony, following an investigation by the Indianola Police Department. He posted bond and is expected to be in court again on June 18th.
The complaint filed in the case said police were contacted in April by the alleged victim, who claimed McCormick had offered them drinks while they were underage and offered to take them to Victoria's Secret 'to get something sexy.'

The incidents happened during June and August of 2024, while the alleged victim was working for McCormick. The complaint said McCormick made the victim so uncomfortable that they stopped working for him.
In January, he was charged with two counts of grooming after the Warren County Sheriff's Office investigated incidents allegedly involving two teen girls, ages 15 and 16. Criminal complaints claim he took them on a shopping trip to eastern Iowa, bought them underwear at Victoria's Secret, and asked for pictures of the teens wearing the items.
Due to the charges, the Iowa Department of Health and Human Services suspended his EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) certification.
McCormick's trial on the first two grooming charges is scheduled for October 9th, 2025.
