This page covers every tool the county offers.

Boone County Sheriff Warrant Search

The Boone County Sheriff's Office is at 316 N. Main Street in Harrison. Phone: (870) 741-8404. The sheriff hosts a warrant search, an inmate roster, and a crime map on the public site. The warrant search lets you run a name or date query, and returns the age, charges, and warrant type. Office hours are 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday.

The sheriff homepage links to the three main public tools. The warrant search is the first stop. The roster is second. The crime map covers reported incidents by location and type.

Types of Boone County Warrants

The sheriff and the clerk hold the full range of warrant types issued in the county.

• Arrest warrants on new felony or misdemeanor charges
• Bench warrants for failure to appear
• Search warrants tied to investigations
• Civil warrants for contempt
• Child support warrants under Arkansas Code § 9-14-239
• Capias warrants after indictment

Arkansas Rules of Criminal Procedure Rule 7.2 sets the content requirements for a warrant. The full legal name, the offense, the statute, the issuing court, the case number, and the bond amount when set all have to be on the face of the warrant. Boone County warrants follow that format. The online lookup pulls those same fields into the public display.

Boone County Warrant Records Under FOIA

Warrants in Boone County are public records under Arkansas Code § 25-19-101. The Freedom of Information Act covers writings, recordings, and data compilations held by a public agency. Warrants fall under that rule. Juvenile records, grand jury material, and open investigation files stay off the public list. Everything else is open.

The Arkansas Attorney General runs a FOIA hotline at 1-800-482-8982. A written request to the sheriff or the clerk should name the subject, give a date range, and note the type of record sought. Agencies may charge for copies and for search time past the first hour under Arkansas Code § 25-19-105.

Note: Boone County follows the ID rule in Arkansas Code § 12-12-1008 before releasing warrant status against a named person.

Background Checks and Absconder Data

For a state-level criminal history check that may include warrants, use the Arkansas State Police Identification Bureau. The mail-in fee is $25. A volunteer check for a non-profit costs $11. Fingerprint rules are in Arkansas Code § 12-12-211. The Arkansas Absconder Search lists people off probation or parole, most of whom have a live warrant. The Arkansas Department of Corrections inmate search closes the loop on a served warrant.

Child support warrants flow through the Office of Child Support Enforcement. The Arkansas Crime Information Center is the law enforcement index and is closed to the general public under the release rules.

Boone County Warrant Service Steps

Boone County deputies serve warrants off a weekly patrol list. The process starts with an address check. A deputy verifies the home, the job, and any known vehicles. A warrant served during business hours often ends with a quiet intake at the Boone County Detention Center. A late-night knock is reserved for high-risk felony warrants. The sheriff shares the active list with the Arkansas State Police Troop H office in Harrison for help on out-of-county leads.

Bond amounts on a Boone County warrant follow the schedule the 14th Judicial Circuit posts. A Class D felony often carries a bond between $2,500 and $10,000. A Class B felony can sit near $50,000. A failure to appear warrant doubles the prior bond as a rule of thumb. The signing judge can set a cash-only hold under Rule 9.2 of the Arkansas Rules of Criminal Procedure. A bail bond firm posts the bond at the detention center front window, after confirming the ID rule in Arkansas Code § 12-12-1008.

Note: A Boone County warrant does not expire on its own; only the issuing judge can recall or quash it.
