And so, it's been 859 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,320 on our um hearts and minds um a lot, 860 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,000 especially over the last several years. 861 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,000 It's been a part of our strategic plan. 862 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,240 How can we serve Clebrron County and the 863 00:37:56,240 --> 00:37:59,760 kids um here better? Um especially when 864 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,760 transportation seems to be one of, you 865 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:03,440 know, one of the big barriers. So right 866 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,000 now um we serve about 50 kids from 867 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,640 Cleburn County. Um but really we're only 868 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,880 serving about 30 to 40% of what we 869 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,440 should be serving. And so we have been 870 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,839 talking u with Mayor Griffin about what 871 00:38:15,839 --> 00:38:17,359 it would look like to partner and bring 872 00:38:17,359 --> 00:38:20,240 a second location um to Heber Springs. 873 00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:22,480 And so to to be able to offer all of 874 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,200 those services but on-site um here in 875 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,320 Heber um to hopefully, you know, again 876 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,280 get those services locally um have a 877 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:32,960 quicker response for those kids and 878 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,320 those kids that are missing out right 879 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,200 now. Um and so 880 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,040 um there's been some unused space I 881 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,520 think in city hall. And so the idea um 882 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,119 that we've talked about and would love 883 00:38:43,119 --> 00:38:45,440 your support on is to be able to bring 884 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,480 um our services into a section of city 885 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,560 hall. And so I I've got you a packet 886 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,320 there kind of breaks down some of our 887 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,400 numbers, the why, um the benefits. Um 888 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,720 but the second page kind of shows you if 889 00:38:58,720 --> 00:38:59,920 you're familiar with the city hall 890 00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:02,079 building, the area that we're thinking, 891 00:39:02,079 --> 00:39:04,240 which case you may be able to explain 892 00:39:04,240 --> 00:39:06,079 better than I can kind of that it's that 893 00:39:06,079 --> 00:39:09,920 back section um where the drive-thru is 894 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,119 police are in there now. 895 00:39:11,119 --> 00:39:13,760 >> Yes. Arkansas State Police over here in 896 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,040 this other office. Um and so we would 897 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,040 have a a private office for or a private 898 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520 entrance for our families so um can kind 899 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,079 of remain confidential um but be able to 900 00:39:24,079 --> 00:39:26,480 provide all of those services um for the 901 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,079 child and family but also for our 902 00:39:28,079 --> 00:39:31,280 partners. Um right now, uh Chief Hail's 903 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,599 still here. Um you know, his officers 904 00:39:33,599 --> 00:39:35,520 oftentime have to drive all the way to 905 00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,480 us. Um that family has to drive to us, 906 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:39,920 um to be able to get the services that 907 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,359 they need for the investigation, but 908 00:39:41,359 --> 00:39:43,119 then also the services that they need to 909 00:39:43,119 --> 00:39:46,000 be able to go on to heal and thrive, um 910 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,480 and all of that. And so, we're excited 911 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:49,920 about the possibility of being able to 912 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,000 bring that closer closer to home for our 913 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,119 families. 914 00:39:53,119 --> 00:39:55,760 >> And they have a dog. [laughter] 915 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,599 Most importantly, we do we also have 916 00:39:57,599 --> 00:39:59,839 facility dogs um that are a part of our 917 00:39:59,839 --> 00:40:02,240 process as well. So, we do everything we 918 00:40:02,240 --> 00:40:04,000 can to make that as child-friendly as 919 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:06,240 possible um so that we're not inducing 920 00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:07,760 any more trauma than they've already 921 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,040 experienced. So, 922 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,119 any question? I tried to do a real quick 923 00:40:13,119 --> 00:40:14,880 synopsis of what we do. So, I know that 924 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,480 was a fast run through, but any 925 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,400 questions about the services we provide 926 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,240 or what that would look like to bring a 927 00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:22,720 second location? Um, I do want to add 928 00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:25,520 that we um we do provide all of those 929 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,680 services for free for the kids and 930 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,520 families.

So, um, 936 00:40:43,599 --> 00:40:46,320 that would be the same for our Clebrron 937 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,400 County location. We wouldn't have to 938 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,800 start we wouldn't have um staff on site 939 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,280 tw you know all the time.

The 1390 01:00:53,119 --> 01:00:55,359 last couple years it's really uh 1391 01:00:55,359 --> 01:00:57,200 accelerated kind of in the decline in 1392 01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:58,480 sort of the management of the program. 1393 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,400 And I can give an example. We used to 1394 01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,240 have 30 to 40 participants in the 1395 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:04,000 Independence County Drug Court. Today 1396 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,000 it's three. We've only got three people 1397 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:07,680 in the program and there's a lot of 1398 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,440 reasons for that that I I'd be glad to 1399 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,599 talk to people about and get into, but 1400 01:01:11,599 --> 01:01:13,040 uh I don't want to take up too much of 1401 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,200 the evening here. Um but I'm the only 1402 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:16,799 candidate running for division 2 that 1403 01:01:16,799 --> 01:01:18,559 has experience working in our drug court 1404 01:01:18,559 --> 01:01:20,799 program. It's why I decided to get into 1405 01:01:20,799 --> 01:01:23,119 this race because I saw I saw kind of 1406 01:01:23,119 --> 01:01:24,559 the writing on the wall. There's two 1407 01:01:24,559 --> 01:01:25,839 other candidates that are running in 1408 01:01:25,839 --> 01:01:27,440 division two. Their announcements, they 1409 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:28,720 didn't talk about it at all. Also, I 1410 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:30,319 said if someone doesn't get out there 1411 01:01:30,319 --> 01:01:32,880 and champion this program, then we could 1412 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,319 lose it. And I think that's a real 1413 01:01:34,319 --> 01:01:36,160 possibility. And I don't say that to be 1414 01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,760 alarmist, but uh you know, I for 1415 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,119 example, I've had lots of pro 1416 01:01:41,119 --> 01:01:43,119 conversation with our prosecutors. They 1417 01:01:43,119 --> 01:01:45,440 just feel like the program right now is 1418 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,760 not as effective as it could be. And and 1419 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:50,720 I can give an example of that is we've 1420 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:52,160 actually got two judges running the 1421 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:54,240 program now. So, Judge McPaden is our 1422 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,079 judge over division 2. He was over the 1423 01:01:56,079 --> 01:01:58,160 program a couple years ago. He wanted to 1424 01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:59,599 give it up and he asked our district 1425 01:01:59,599 --> 01:02:01,520 court judges if they were willing to do 1426 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:03,680 it. You know, Judge Wright does Cleaver 1427 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:05,440 in Stone County. He declined. Judge 1428 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,280 Taylor, who is our independence and 1429 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:08,960 Fulton County judge, agreed to. So, we 1430 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:10,480 actually have two judges running the 1431 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:12,640 program, which makes it impossible for 1432 01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:14,400 there to be consistency across the 1433 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,799 district. Uh there's there's no there's 1434 01:02:16,799 --> 01:02:19,119 no consistency. And so, our prosecutors, 1435 01:02:19,119 --> 01:02:20,720 like when I talk to them, they say, 1436 01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,400 "Hey, if we can't have predictability 1437 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,400 and consistency in the program, why are 1438 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,319 we going to put people in it?" And so 1439 01:02:26,319 --> 01:02:28,880 the need in our community for this is 1440 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:30,480 still there because we still have a lot 1441 01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:31,920 of of issues with drug addiction 1442 01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:33,760 families that are struggling with that. 1443 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,480 And so if you don't have a plan for how 1444 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,400 to fix that and get that program back to 1445 01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:40,240 the way it used to be, get the numbers 1446 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,160 in the program up and really make it 1447 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:43,760 effective and get our prosecutors and 1448 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:45,359 our law enforcement on board, then 1449 01:02:45,359 --> 01:02:47,119 you're really not qualified to run for 1450 01:02:47,119 --> 01:02:49,520 division 2 in my opinion. Uh we used to 1451 01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:51,440 have a veterans treatment component in 1452 01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:52,720 our drug court because we have a lot of 1453 01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:54,160 veterans in our district that struggle 1454 01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:56,319 with drug addiction. That uh program was 1455 01:02:56,319 --> 01:03:00,000 started again by Judge Kimp because he was really big uh proponent of 1456 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:01,599 helping veterans who struggle with drug 1457 01:03:01,599 --> 01:03:03,520 addiction. After he again ran for the 1458 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,200 Supreme Court, the judges after him left 1459 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,040 those agreements with the VA laps. So we 1460 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,119 lost several years ago our veterans 1461 01:03:09,119 --> 01:03:11,040 treatment sort of track in our drug 1462 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:12,559 court program. So we don't have access 1463 01:03:12,559 --> 01:03:14,960 to those VA resources like we used to if 1464 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,039 there are veterans in the program. Uh, 1465 01:03:17,039 --> 01:03:19,520 another reason that we see a lot of uh, 1466 01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:21,119 repeat criminal behavior and a lot of 1467 01:03:21,119 --> 01:03:22,480 our families in our district are 1468 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:24,160 struggling with mental health issues. 1469 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:25,520 And right now, if you've got a family 1470 01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:27,039 member that's got a mental health issue 1471 01:03:27,039 --> 01:03:28,799 where they're a danger to themselves or 1472 01:03:28,799 --> 01:03:30,160 to others, you have to go through 1473 01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,119 there's a civil um, petition process to 1474 01:03:33,119 --> 01:03:34,799 file for a civil commitment that's kind 1475 01:03:34,799 --> 01:03:36,720 of ownorous on people. You get into 1476 01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,400 court and then if you're lucky, maybe 1477 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,240 the judge will order a 7-day commitment 1478 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:41,839 to a hospital and sometimes that can 1479 01:03:41,839 --> 01:03:43,760 help stabilize people and get them out. 1480 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,000 that there's a need really for more 1481 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,400 long-term uh care and treatment for 1482 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:49,920 families that are dealing with family 1483 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:51,760 members who have mental health issues. 1484 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:53,039 It would be difficult, I'm just going to 1485 01:03:53,039 --> 01:03:54,000 be honest about it, it would be 1486 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,520 difficult in our district to start like 1487 01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:57,280 a mental health treatment court. Uh 1488 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:58,400 there are some there's one in Little 1489 01:03:58,400 --> 01:03:59,920 Rock and one in Jonesboro and sort of 1490 01:03:59,920 --> 01:04:02,079 the bigger cities have those resources. 1491 01:04:02,079 --> 01:04:04,559 We're we're much more spread thin, you 1492 01:04:04,559 --> 01:04:06,480 know, with our population density. So, 1493 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:08,079 that would be hard, but I think our 1494 01:04:08,079 --> 01:04:09,680 family court should be doing more. And 1495 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:11,520 that's something I'm willing to take on 1496 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:13,839 to try and address that need because it 1497 01:04:13,839 --> 01:04:15,760 is a real need. And I and at the end of 1498 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:16,960 the day, really, I think our family 1499 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:18,960 court should be doing more to help 1500 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:20,559 families in our district than it's 1501 01:04:20,559 --> 01:04:21,839 currently doing. And that's why I've 1502 01:04:21,839 --> 01:04:23,760 gotten into this race. I work at the 1503 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,200 public defenders office. That's what 1504 01:04:25,200 --> 01:04:26,799 I've always done. I've represented, you 1505 01:04:26,799 --> 01:04:28,319 know, I've had thousands of cases over 1506 01:04:28,319 --> 01:04:29,920 the years. I've tried jury trials. I've 1507 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,440 done appeals. I've done arguments before 1508 01:04:31,440 --> 01:04:33,359 the Arkansas Supreme Court. I spent 1509 01:04:33,359 --> 01:04:35,760 years in juvenile court advocating for 1510 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:37,440 uh children in our district. Primarily 1511 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:39,599 that was in Isert County. Uh and I do 1512 01:04:39,599 --> 01:04:41,039 primarily court and independence in 1513 01:04:41,039 --> 01:04:42,720 Isert County, but I'm in Cleverstone and 1514 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:44,720 Fulton a bunch as well. So I have the 1515 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:46,000 experience to do it and I have the 1516 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,480 vision uh of how I think that our family 1517 01:04:48,480 --> 01:04:50,319 court could better serve our community 1518 01:04:50,319 --> 01:04:52,240 and the families in our community. So 1519 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:53,839 that's why I got into this race and I'll 1520 01:04:53,839 --> 01:04:55,920 be glad to to stick around afterwards if 1521 01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:57,359 anyone wants to talk to me. But thank 1522 01:04:57,359 --> 01:04:58,960 you for giving me a few minutes to to 1523 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,359 talk with you. 1524 01:05:01,359 --> 01:05:04,319 30s were finally 1525 01:05:04,319 --> 01:05:10,390 down. 1526 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:12,160 » No. No. And it's and I will just say 1527 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:13,680 just since uh since since Mr. Short 1528 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,359 mentioned that is of the other two 1529 01:05:15,359 --> 01:05:16,960 candidates that are running in division 1530 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:18,640 2, they either don't talk about drug 1531 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,720 court or on the rare occasion they do, 1532 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:23,359 they downplay it. There was a a forum 1533 01:05:23,359 --> 01:05:24,960 last week in Independence County that 1534 01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:26,559 you can go watch online. It's on White 1535 01:05:26,559 --> 01:05:28,640 River Now's Facebook page. And one of my 1536 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:30,079 opponents, Miss Byer, she talked about 1537 01:05:30,079 --> 01:05:33,119 how there was 400 open cases in the 1538 01:05:33,119 --> 01:05:34,799 domestic relations docket. And then she 1539 01:05:34,799 --> 01:05:37,280 said there's only 25 cases in our drug 1540 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:38,960 court program districtwide. So, as you 1541 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,039 can see, the bulk of the case load is in 1542 01:05:41,039 --> 01:05:43,039 the domestic relations docket. And to 1543 01:05:43,039 --> 01:05:44,880 me, that's that's the problem. If you 1544 01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:46,319 don't have a plan for how to get those 1545 01:05:46,319 --> 01:05:48,319 numbers up and really utilize the 1546 01:05:48,319 --> 01:05:50,400 program we have, we're going to lose it 1547 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:51,760 because people are already talking 1548 01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:52,960 about, well, hey, we're spending all 1549 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:54,559 this money on this program and there's 1550 01:05:54,559 --> 01:05:56,000 only three people in the Independence 1551 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,200 County Drug Court. Why are we doing 1552 01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,039 that? That's a waste of money. And once 1553 01:05:59,039 --> 01:06:01,119 people start talking that way, you're at 1554 01:06:01,119 --> 01:06:02,960 risk of losing that program if you don't 1555 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:04,640 really write the ship and get it back. 1556 01:06:04,640 --> 01:06:06,400 So that's why I got in the race. That's 1557 01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:08,240 what I'm I'm talking about everywhere I 1558 01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:10,880 go. And uh and I hope uh I hope that uh 1559 01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:13,760 y'all will consider me um and consider 1560 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:15,680 me for March 3rd.
