Cross County Sheriff's Office

The Cross County Sheriff's Office sits at 705 E Union Avenue in Wynne, AR 72396. You can reach the main line at 870-238-5784 or 870-238-5700. Staff take calls through the day and through the night. The office runs patrol, court security, civil process, and the jail. It also handles arrest records and FOIA work for the county.

The Sheriff is the top peace officer in Cross County under Arkansas law. Arkansas Code § 12-41-502 gives the Sheriff full custody of the jail and each person held there. The same office also helps serve warrants with the Wynne Police Department and the Arkansas State Police. All three agencies book people into the same jail, so they all feed the Cross County Jail Roster.

For a roster check by phone, ask the booking desk for the inmate's full name and date of birth. Staff can tell you if that person is in custody and what the charges are. They may hold off on some details if the file is sealed or if a hold is in place.

Cross County Jail and Detention Center

The Cross County Jail and Detention Center is at 1600 S Falls Boulevard, Wynne, AR 72396. The phone is (870) 238-5700. The facility holds adults booked by the Sheriff, the Wynne PD, the Parkin PD, the Cherry Valley PD, and state troopers. People brought in on federal holds are also housed here at times.

The jail is a small to mid-size county facility. Staff work in shifts around the clock. The booking area is open at all hours, so the roster changes each day as new people come in and others post bond or go to court. Call the jail to ask about visitation days, rules on cash drop-offs, and mail format. Some rules have changed over the past few years, so always check before you drive out.

Cases that start with a booking on the Cross County Jail Roster move to district court or to the 1st Judicial Circuit. The state case search at caseinfo.arcourts.gov covers Cross County. Look up a case by name or by case number. You can see the charge, the judge, and the next hearing date.

The Arkansas Judiciary main site at arcourts.gov lists every court in the state. It has links to forms and rules. If you owe a court fine from a Cross County case, you can pay at pay.arcourts.gov. Pay online with a card if the court accepts it. Some district courts only take cash or money order, so check first.

FOIA and Cross County Jail Roster Records

Arkansas Code § 25-19-101 makes most jail records open to the public. The Cross County Sheriff's Office has three business days to reply to a FOIA ask. Send your ask in writing. State the name of the inmate, a date range, and the type of record. Ask for booking sheets, mugshots, the Cross County Jail Roster for a given day, or call logs from the desk.

Some records are closed by law. Juvenile files are sealed under Arkansas Code § 9-27-309. Inmate medical files are not open under Arkansas Code § 12-12-1707, which lines up with HIPAA. The release of state inmate records is set by Arkansas Code § 12-27-113(2)(A). Fees for copies apply and fee waivers are not allowed. Plan to pay for any long pull.

For background checks at the state level, use the Arkansas Crime Information Center. ACIC runs the sex offender list and the background check tool. A formal Arkansas State Police background check is at ark.org/criminal. That report costs $25 by mail. Police reports from the Wynne PD can be pulled through policereports.lexisnexis.com if the agency is enrolled.
