Governor Hutchinson’s weekly address | Taking steps to reduce violent crime
“We had to get a better handle on the violence here in Central Arkansas. As a result, I directed the Division of Community Correction to reinstate the Intensive Supervision Program. This program is composed of officers who monitor high-risk parolees and probationers in Central Arkansas. The officers are able to provide closer supervision on those that have spent time in prison and released on parole and who pose a greater risk than others.” – Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, August 26, 2022
