From Jackson County Sheriff Russell Brinsfield: You may have noticed an increased presence of law enforcement officers working through out Jackson County today during a planned law enforcement saturation. This was a joint operation involving officers from the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, 3rd Judicial Drug Task Force, Newport Police Department, Arkansas State Police, Arkansas Dept. of Community Corrections (ACC), Central Arkansas Drug Task Force, Randolph County Sheriff’s Office, Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office, Tuckerman Police Department, Diaz Police Department, and the Swifton Police Department. The goal of this operation was to target wanted felons, absconders, as well as individuals not in compliance with the terms of their probation and parole. There were fifteen individuals arrested and more arrests are expected to come. I would like to thank all agencies involved.
