The Special Investigations Division, which has jurisdiction throughout Arkansas, includes certified law enforcement officers committed to protecting Arkansas’s children by investigating and arresting individuals who sexually exploit children online.

Forensic examiners in the Cyber Crimes Unit’s state-of-the-art laboratory utilize the latest equipment to keep pace with ever-changing technology. The Special Investigations Division, which is a member of the Arkansas Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, works cooperatively with federal, State and local law enforcement agencies at every stage of investigations, arrests and convictions.

Sheriff’s offices and police departments often assist the Cyber Crimes Unit executing search warrants or apprehending suspects. Division attorneys collaborate with prosecutors who pursue charges against criminals on behalf of the State.
