On Monday, the Edmonson County Sheriffs Department released information related to criminal activity and medical response following the Redneck Rave on June 16.

According to ECSO, there were:
48 people charged with various offenses, including 14 arrested
30 charges involving drugs or alcohol-related offenses
63 traffic-related offenses charged
Two arrest warrants were served on a fugitive, and 6 felony charges, including assault, strangulation, and wanton endangerment were also charged
ECSO also escorted EMS with security during medical transports responding to such injuries as:
Broken bones
Severed and dislocated fingers
Impalement through the abdomen
Lacerations
Severe intoxication-related medical issues
ECSO also responded to theft and assault complaints within the park. The Sheriffs Office, in conjunction with District 5 Constable Charlie Peck and the Kentucky State Police, administered multiple traffic safety checkpoints around the Lincoln community throughout the event. The Sheriffs Office was also assisted by Mammoth Cave National Park Rangers and Kentucky Fish and Wildlife on various traffic stops and calls for service.
