Pulaski County Deputy Sheriff Justin Paradise   A tipster reached out to us Sunday night and provided us with this information. We reached out to Pulaski County Sheriff Eric Higgins and he advised us that a file had already been started by his supervisor.  We followed up with a submission of am AFOIA request: The PSCO's Public Information Officer sent us an email on Monday that contained a press release. The name of the deputy involved was not provided so we followed up our first AFOIA request with a demand for the actual incident report. PCSO complied and provided this: According to records from the Pulaski County Assessor's website, the home where Deputy Paradise resides is owned by his mother.

North Little Rock Police Department seeks decertification of former pedo cop Tommy "Freak" Norman

The Arkansas Commission on Law Enforcement Standards and Training ("CLEST") will vote on a request made by North Little Rock Police Department to decertify former NLRPD cop Tommy "Freak" Norman at their April meeting next week. Norman resigned as internal and criminal investigations were in progress and that is an automatic decertification under CLEST rules. Our  Ean Lee Bordeaux , spearheaded a investigation of Norman that forced NLRPD to open an internal investigation of Norman's questionable and illegal activities. Soon after and not connected to the internal investigation, Norman was arrested for Domestic Violence. Norman resigned a few days after his arrest ending a sketchy 27 year stint at NLRPD. Bordeaux, on his Corruption Sucks Blog , published a series of articles about "Freak" Norman.  We published a couple as well. https://www.smr.snarkymedia.com/2025/09/nlrpd-cop-tommy-norman-arrested-for.html https://www.smr.snarkymedia.com/2025/10/10-thin...

  Delphone Hubbard - Little Rock City Manager Delphone Delaney Hubbard was selected to be the Little Rock Fire Department Chief in November 2017 by City Manager Bruce Moore.

LRPD Officer James Sloan Caught in Testilying Scandal: Acknowledges Tampering with Public Records

His heading the LRPD FOI Unit is unethical & shady The Little Rock Police Department has been subject of corruption investigations by federal law enforcement agencies over the years with little to no change in their crooked operations. LRPD's corruption streams from the top down throughout the ranks*: ⬥ In 1988, LRPD police chief Jess. F. "Doc" Hale was arrested after stealing funds from a drug store cash register. After being suspended, he committed suicide. ⬥ In the 1990's the safe city of Little Rock became one of the most violent cities in the United States. HBO produced a documentary about the gang violence that had taken over the city. White LRPD cops headed the white flight movement out of the city citing crimes and schools as a reason to relocate.  ⬥ In 2010, LRPD cops murdered the father of two black LRPD officers.

When the Law Is Not Applied Equally: Questions Raised by the Prosecution of El Dorado's Former Mayor

     By Rena Borden - El Dorado Former Mayor Veronica Smith-Creer was arrested and charged with felony theft in 2024,  while others who played central roles were not .  That difference alone raises serious questions about selective enforcement and how the law is applied in practice.

In October 2022, I began trying to help raise a reward for a missing young woman in El Dorado, Arkansas. Ieshia Jackson disappeared on October 31, 2020. Her case remains unsolved. I was directed to contact Captain Scott Harwell, who served as the liaison between El Dorado Crime Stoppers and the El Dorado Police Department. Captain Harwell inst...
