Criminal procedure in the **U.S. justice system** follows **rules to protect personal rights**, such as requiring an arrest warrant. Checking Montgomery County for online lists of outstanding warrants might reveal numerous names. **Here’s a crucial tip:** The names you find aren’t always confirmed, which means these people haven’t been found guilty yet. **The system upholds** the idea of “innocent until proven guilty.”
Keeping that concept in mind, the Montgomery County, AK sheriff has a website, http://www.montgomerycountysheriffar.org/, which provides a good deal of information on law enforcement in the county including such things as links to the Arkansas Crime Information Center and the Arkansas Sex Offender Database. It is a good starting point for a warrant search, as another link provides a list of Montgomery County arrest warrants. Before viewing the list, however, users must agree to the terms of use set forth by the sheriff, including that:
- The provided information is for the convenience of users
- No guarantee is made as to the timeliness, authenticity, and accuracy of the information
- Users should not rely upon the information
- The sheriff and county have no liability should someone rely upon the information.
- Users should take no actions based upon the contents of the list
In a county where there are about forty crimes per year, with only a few violent crimes in any five-year period, there will still be active arrest warrants from time to time. The list on the sheriff’s website link is 18 pages long, which seems excessive. However, there is no notation as to the exact location or dates of offenses, so the scope of the list is unclear. The good news is that it is in alphabetical order and easy to scan, so finding the names of individuals with active warrants in Montgomery County, AR, is relatively simple.
