Registered Sex Offenders on the Web
All registered sex offenders in the State of Arkansas
are required to submit to assessment by the Sex Offender Screening &
Risk Assessment Program coordinated by the Arkansas Department of Correction.
Each offender is assigned a risk level based on the results of the assessment.
Offenders failing to submit to assessment are assigned default Risk
Level 3.
Arkansas Code Annotated §12-12-913 (j)(1)(A),
mandates that information on registered sex offenders determined to
pose the highest level of risk to the public (Level 3 and Level 4),
must be available on the Arkansas state website by January 1, 2004.
Recent changes in the law have added public access to information regarding
Level 2 offenders who were 18 or older and the victim was 14 or younger
at the time of the offense.
Based on information obtained from the risk assessment
process, offenders are assigned the following levels: Level 1: Low Risk;
Level 2: Moderate Risk; Level 3: High Risk; Level 4: Sexually Violent
