Although the Conway County Jail is licensed for 106 inmates, it frequently holds more than that, particularly on weekends. City and county jails in Arkansas typically turn over at least 40% of their population every month, another 30% every 90 days, and another 20% every six months, with roughly 8-9% staying six to twelve months. Inmates who stay longer than a year are usually charged with serious crimes like murder or rape. Those cases take a long time to prepare for trial, so offenders arrested in Conway County for them stay in one of the Conway County facilities much longer.
In Arkansas, bail can be denied only when someone is charged with a capital offense and the proof is evident or the presumption is great. Judges in Conway County can release anyone else on their own recognizance, set release conditions, or set bail.
Approximately 2,120 offenders are arrested and detained each year by Conway County law enforcement agencies.
