Sevier County Arrest Records

Sevier County arrest records are kept by the sheriff's office in De Queen, by the De Queen Police Department, and by the Arkansas State Police on major stops along US 71 and US 70. The Sevier County Jail books new arrests and posts an inmate search online. Statewide tools like CourtConnect, ARCH, and the ADC inmate search round out the picture. This page shows you where to find a Sevier County arrest record, what each site holds, and how to file a FOIA request for the full report.

Sevier County Sheriff Arrest Records

The Sevier County Sheriff's Office is the main source for local arrest records. The jail sits at 137 Robinson Rd, De Queen, AR 71832. The phone is 870-642-2125. Deputies book new inmates, run warrants, and work alongside the De Queen PD on city-limits cases. The sheriff's office also works with the Arkansas State Police on major wrecks and drug stops along US 71.

For a public inmate roster, the sheriff's search page is the first stop. A screenshot of the tool is below. Launch it at seviersheriffar.org/inmateSearch. The page shows name, booking details, and charges. Data updates when the jail office pushes a new booking into the system.

The Arkansas Sheriff's Association page at arkansassheriffsassociation.com is a backup. It lists arrests with bond amount, mugshots, bond information, case records, incarceration date, charges, type, and description. The association page sometimes has data when the main sheriff site is slow.

Sevier County Arrest Records on CourtConnect

Once prosecutors file a case, it moves onto CourtConnect. The tool is run by the Administrative Office of the Courts. There is no fee. Use caseinfo.arcourts.gov to search by name, case number, citation, or filing date.

Sevier County is part of the 9th Judicial Circuit, West Division. The circuit clerk files felony cases in De Queen. The district court takes misdemeanors, DWI first appearances, and city ordinance counts. CourtConnect covers all those case types. For help with the portal, email acap.help@arcourts.gov.

CourtConnect doesn't show the arrest itself. It shows the charging document, the arraignment, the plea, and the final disposition. A sister tool called eTraffic lets the public pay traffic tickets online in counties that use the Contexte case management system. The AOC at 625 Marshall Street in Little Rock runs both.

Statewide Sevier County Arrest Records Check

ARCH is the main public path to a statewide arrest and conviction check. It was created by Act 1185 of 2015, at Ark. Code Ann. § 12-12-1501 et seq. ARCH pulls from the ACIC database. Results are tied to fingerprints, not name alone. A search runs $24.00. Pay by debit or credit card. Launch it at arch.ark.org.

ARCH returns one of three answers. Subject with a record. Subject with no record. Or no subject found. You need the person's first and last name, sex, and date of birth. ARCH covers Arkansas felony and misdemeanor convictions, open felony arrests less than three years old, and sex offender status for levels 1 through 4. Anyone has the right to see and challenge their own record under Ark. Code Ann. § 12-12-1013. Call ACIC at 501-682-2222.

ARCH leaves out juvenile records, dismissed charges, not-guilty findings, active warrants, sealed records, pardoned convictions, out-of-state history, federal history, and traffic citations. For certified copies needed for immigration or adoption, mail in form ASP-122 with a $25 fee to the Arkansas State Police Identification Bureau at 1 State Police Plaza Dr., Little Rock, AR 72209.

Sevier County FOIA and Record Sealing

The Arkansas FOIA at Ark. Code Ann. § 25-19-101 et seq. is the core statute for records access. Any Arkansas citizen can ask for arrest reports, jail rosters, and warrant lists. The sheriff has three business days to respond. Copy fees are capped at actual cost. The Attorney General at arkansasag.gov keeps a FOIA Handbook and opinions on sealed records.

Sealing is what other states call expungement. The Comprehensive Criminal Record Sealing Act of 2013, at Ark. Code Ann. § 16-90-1401 et seq., sets the frame. You file a petition in the Sevier County Circuit Court where the case was heard. Misdemeanors and many felonies can be sealed after sentence and wait time. Violent felonies, registered sex offenses, and certain public indecency counts are not eligible. Juvenile sealing runs on Ark. Code Ann. § 9-27-309.

For forms, the AOC posts a standard petition at arcourts.gov. Sealed records drop off ARCH and the CBC system. They stay with the court and with law enforcement for limited uses.

Sevier County Jail and Booking Data

The Sevier County Jail is a small rural facility at 137 Robinson Rd. The jail books new arrests, holds pretrial inmates, and houses some sentenced misdemeanants. Long-term inmates move to state prison once the judge hands down the sentence. The sheriff's office runs the booking desk and the visitation schedule.

Under Ark. Code Ann. § 12-12-1001 et seq., the sheriff must print every arrestee on listed offenses. Those prints feed ACIC, the state data system tied to the FBI's NCIC. ACIC sits at 322 S. Main Street, Suite 615, Little Rock. Call 501-682-2222 for a right-to-challenge request under Ark. Code Ann. § 12-12-1013. Most ACIC data is restricted to law enforcement, but the public gets into ARCH and the sex offender registry.

Booking data held by the jail covers the arrest date and time, the arresting agency, charges, mugshot, bond, and release date. The roster is usually updated within hours of intake. For family help, bond posting, or visit rules, call the sheriff's office.

Sevier County Inmate Status and Victim Alerts
