**Headline: Saline County Sheriff's Office Fails to Protect Child, Officer Neglects to Verify Critical Information**
Back in July of this year, A tragic failure of responsibility occurred in Saline County. It was on the afternoon of July 30th when Officer Jordan of the Saline County Sheriff's Office in Shannon Hills, Arkansas, neglected to properly intervene in a dangerous custody dispute. The mother of a child, whom had been advised by the Pulaski County Sheriff's office in Little Rock, had requested assistance in retrieving her child and a vehicle from the father, who was driving a car with no functioning brakes.
Wait, what?
The car belonged to the mother, she had let him borrow it 2 months prior. The father had been refusing to return the vehicle the entire time, even after multiple calls to the Pulaski County Sheriff's Office in Little Rock, AR for assistance. They said nothing could be done. This being because she had let him borrow it to begin with.
In fact, They refused to even look at the paperwork for the vehicle that the mother had in her possession, proving ownership.
Sometime later, the brakes had gone out. Still, the father refused to return the vehicle. Still he continued to refuse to return the children and had been spotted by several witnesses driving children in this unsafe vehicle.
Then, again on the afternoon of July 30th, 2024, after the mother again contacted Pulaski County for help, they finally advised the mother to call Saline County and Meet with one of their officers at the father's residence.
Officer Jordan was then was supposed to meet both parents at the father’s residence to resolve the situation. After speaking to the mother on the phone and agreeing to meet her in the grocery store parking lot, However, he instead met solely with the father, who allegedly had presented paperwork for not only the wrong child, but for custody of the ESTATE of another child entirely. (This means the paperwork was for guardianship of the other child's lawsuit money after being ran over by a school bus, and not the other child himself, nor the child in question at the time. IN FACT, the child whom the papers pertained to, WAS WITH THE MOTHER WHILE SPEAKING TO OFFICER JORDAN! Rather than verifying the documents or investigating further, Officer Jordan accepted the father’s claims at face value. The mother was then denied access to both her child and the vehicle.
The very next day, the car was totaled in an accident due to the brake failure, narrowly avoiding a deadly tragedy involving the child. The community is demanding accountability for this grave negligence, which could have resulted in a fatal outcome. In the subsequent car wreck, the father was unable to stop the vehicle while coming off of an exit in Little Rock. He pulled the emergency brake, to no avail. He then turned the wheel to avoid the other cars, and multiple vehicles then struck the rear end of the vehicle and pushed him up and over the guard rail. Thankfully, no one was injured in any of the involved vehicles. Had officer Jordan done his job the way he should have, this car would not have been on the road and this wreck would not have happened. #SalineCountyNeglect #DemandJustice #OfficerAccountability #lawenforcementfails #miscarriageofjustice #outrage #justiceforhannahandkids #justiceforhannah #accountabilitynow #salinecountysherrifsoffice #shannonhillsarkansas
Below,
It has been attached, the photos of the damaged vehicle, and the photo of a copy of the "paperwork" that Officer Jordan read. Clearly, the paperwork is for a child named "D" birthdate: July 21st, when the incident was involving a child with the Initial "C" whose birthdate is March 28th. In fact, Child "D" was with the mother at the time of speaking with this particular officer on this particular day.
