Pulaski County Circuit Clerk has to make public a secret employee photo album they told employees they would keep private

Back in 2019, the Pulaski County Circuit & County Clerk's Office was making a employee photo album. One that Margie Worlow would be a secreet, in-office only document.

Apparently Margie Worlow, the Jury Administrator for the Pulaski County Circuit Clerk's Office was ignorant of the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act.

We say was, because she has been apprised of that and some other important information (you can't refuse to provide your name to a patron) by Marc Harrison, Chief Administrator for the Pulaski County Circuit & County Clerk's office.

Records, like the PCCC's employee photo album are public records, and as such are subject to disclosure under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act ("AFOIA").

Our own Russ Racop had dealings with her and another employee last week over incorrect information on a new voter registration card he received from their office.

Racop was reassigned from Ward 6 to Ward 4 after the city of Little Rock moved his street from Ward 6 to Ward 4 to prevent him from running against the admitted criminal and current Ward 6 Director Doris Wright.

PCCC employees didn't seem concerned that they had the incorrect ward information and refused to provide their names.

One of those employees said Racop would have to speak with her supervisor, but was told the supervisor "had not made it into work yet". When pressed by Racop that worker said the supervisor was running some "personal errands".

Apparently the higher your position is at the clerk's office the more flexible your schedule is.

Not having accurate information in their records could impact the outcome of local elections.

Stay tuned for more information about the ward information SNAFU.

Disgraced ex-LRPD cop and felon lied on her employment application to get job with Arkansas State Police

In 2009, Sheva Howard was a Little Rock cop. She began working at LRPD in 2001 as a Crime Scene Specialist and in 2003 she became a police officer. Howard also worked off-duty, in her LRPD uniform, at Dillard's until she was caught in an act of thievery. Howard purchased one purse, but it was in a bag so heavy she had to drag it on the ground. That bag was later found to have multiple purses packed into another purse. That incident also ended her career as a cop and gained her a felony conviction. The LRPD Internal Investigation file reads like a script from an episode of Law & Order. Howard was found to be untruthful during the internal investigation. Here's what the local newspaper published about her criminal trial. Howard's supervisor at Dillard's was Willie Robinson. It just so happened that Robinson was and is also an Arkansas State Trooper. Howard tried to have her conviction overturned but the Arkansas Court of Appeals upheld her conviction. After

Three LRPD cops "relieved of duty" over incident at Club Trois

Sources at LRPD have confirmed a tip we received that three LRPD cops, Brad Stewart, Lee Pitts and Justin Sims have been "relieved of duty" in connection with an incident at Club Trois. The story we were told is that Stewart was working off-duty at Club Trois and dealt with an inebriated female club patron by soaking her with pepper spray. LRPD General Order ("G.O.") 303 requires that a cop that uses physical force, non-lethal control and compliance devices, on or off-duty, follow certain procedures. Use of pepper spray is a Level 4 event. Here are the specific procedures. LRPD sources tell us that they are trained to call MEMS after they use pepper spray or a taser on an individual. They are to file an incident report and they file an officer's report or letter form (5600-2) with their immediate supervisor for each use of force incident. Here's an example of an officer letter form. Not a single procedure was followed in this incident. And to make matter
