I work in Lonoke. They don't need more cops, the ones they have need to do a better job. Most people can tell you where the crackhouses are located. The cops simply don't do anything. My home was broken into last year. I was told there were no detectives available in the county on a Friday night after I was asked if they could dust for prints on the broken glass of my Tv stand. Simple truth is there is no law and order in Lonoke. The town has a history of corrupt law officials and it never changes. Want to stop crime? Remove the criminals running the police and sheriff's office for a start. Ive seen the incompetence firsthand and its sickening.

Gotta go with itsjustme on this one. Lock up all the tweekers and crackheads, and most of this will stop. Mayberry it ain't; they need more than two officers on patrol. They could use their resources in a better way also. Busting 50 year old men for growing a couple of plants; the law in Lonoke is focused on the wrong things!

You can have all of the police presence you want, you will never curb crime with the way our justice system is right now. What good does it do to arrest people when they get probation because a prosecutor offers a plea bargain? Make crime punishable, make sentences more longer and make prison a living hell hole.

Well I liked tommies plan to stop robberies in the stores. Although he earned the name hotdog. A good lawyer also made him out to be a fool. Then it is easy to see how he ended. Bankrupt and in trouble with the law. Looks to be that way with people that use guns as the final answer to all. Drug testing for all weapon purchases in this country. That includes alcohol. No guns for those with drug and alcohol use with arrest below the felony level.

I live in this small town and it is unreal that people are stealing from their own community. This is something that is not a joke! I feel that we need more officers in Lonoke some that will do away with the crime.Bring a bus and arrest all of the crimnals take them away and throw the key away. Lonoke needs help not only from the officers but from the public! Do what the officers are asking and take the proper precaution when it comes to your belonging! I know I will
