Last week, beginning on November 5th, 2025. The Craighead County Sheriff’s Office launched Operation Innocence Guard. This operation was to verify sex offender registration compliance based on the Arkansas Sex Offender Registration Laws. The goal was to ensure that offenders comply with all requirements and that no new offenses are committed.

28 contacts were made.

2 offenders were out of compliance.

3 arrests were made, one being a drug offense.

3 children were removed from a home and are now in a safer environment.

A HUGE THANK YOU to Sergeant Mandi Smyth for leading the charge in this operation to ensure the safety of our community.

Assistant Chief Jason Allen
