The Cass County Prosecutor’s Office announced that 38-year-old Amanda Sayger has been found guilty of the following charges:
- Seven counts of Child Molesting (Level 1 Felony)
- Child Molesting (Level 4 Felony)
- Neglect of a Dependent (Level 6 Felony)
- Promotion of Child Sexual Trafficking (Level 3 Felony)
- Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor (Class A Misdemeanor)
The charges were brought forward after the Logansport Police Department investigated a report in 2023 alleging that a juvenile female was allegedly sexually assaulted by Mikel Fort.
Online court records out of Cass Circuit Court show that Fort is set to appear for his jury trial in the case on March 9, 2026, at 9 a.m. It was previously scheduled to commence on Oct. 20. He faces nine preliminary counts of child molesting, which are level 1 and level 4 felonies. He also has child exploitation and contributing to the delinquency of a minor charges pending against him.
Cass County Prosecutor Noah Schafer said the investigation uncovered evidence that Sayger was a co-conspirator in the alleged assault and helped to arrange these encounters in exchange for money. The prosecutor’s office added that the juvenile victim was given alcohol and THC gummies during the assaults.
Schafer said in a release that Sayger claimed during her trial that she was the individual who was having sex for money instead of the juvenile. Prosecutors determined this did not align with her previous testimony or the evidence gathered by detectives.
“We’re very grateful to the jury for listening to the difficult evidence in this case, and to Detective Rozzi for a thorough, professional investigation,” Schafer said. “We’re also especially proud of the victim for having the courage to make her voice heard and help achieve a measure of justice for what was done to her.”
Sayger is set to learn her fate on Nov. 20. She faces a maximum sentence exceeding 300 years.
