The Sheriff’s Office reported that in July and August, the 3rd Judicial Drug Task Force and detectives with the Sharp County Sheriff’s Office began an investigation into drug trafficking stemming from an inmate at the jail. During the investigation called “Operation Jail Mail,” agents monitored hundreds of hours of inmate phone calls, video calls, and text messaging. On August 6th Agents with the 3rd Judicial Drug Task Force, Sharp County Deputies, deputies with Lawrence County Sheriff’s Office, Black Rock Police and Arkansas State Police executed a traffic stop on a vehicle traveling from Memphis. As a result, they arrested Randy Mitchell of Williford and a juvenile for trafficking meth and possession of drug paraphernalia. During the stop, officers found approximately 8 ounces of meth. Officers then executed a search warrant at a residence in Ozark Acres, as a result, agents gathered enough evidence to charge Linda Kinsey of Williford with possession of a firearm by certain persons, theft by receiving, and possession of drug paraphernalia. Agents also filed additional charges on Randy Mitchell for possession of meth greater than 10 grams but less than 200 grams and illegal manufacture of liquor. They also charged Joseph Mitchel who was an inmate at the Sharp County Jail with conspiracy to traffic meth and unlawful use of a communication device—in total officers seized 282 grams of meth, 9 firearms, $1,452 in cash, and one vehicle.
