Although the Little River Detention Center is licensed for 86 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 Little River County for them stay in one of the Little River County facilities much longer.

Arkansas’s constitution allows bail to be denied only for capital offenses when the proof is evident or the presumption is great. Everyone else charged with a crime is eligible for bail, and judges in Little River County can also release defendants on their own recognizance or with conditions.

Approximately 1,720 offenders are arrested and detained each year by Little River County law enforcement agencies.

Paying bail for someone in custody in Little River County

Once someone is booked at Little River Detention Center in Ashdown after an arrest, there are several outcomes:

1. They may be released without paying bail, agreeing to show up on a scheduled date.
2. They may remain in custody until their court appearance.
3. They can pay a bail or bond for release. Call 870-898-5115 for bail details.

Bail payments can take several forms.

• The full cash bond is paid at the jail's bonding window or at the clerk of court using cash, a cashier's check or a money order, while many jails add a card option at a lobby kiosk or through an online bond service for a fee; bring the inmate's full name and booking number, and call the jail at 870-898-5115 with questions.
• A licensed bail bond agent in Little River County can help cover bail.
• Many courts take real estate as security for a bond; the property owner must show clear title plus equity at least equal to the bond, often twice it, backed by a deed and a recent tax or appraisal value, and the court that set the bail gives final approval.
