Arkansas commission clears deputy in controversial arrest case
SUMMARY: Former Johnson County Deputy Jason Cole was recommended for decertification by Sheriff Tom Hughes for his use of force during an arrest in January 2024. Despite this, the Arkansas Law Enforcement Standards and Training Commissioners deemed the force justified, allowing Cole to continue working part-time as a Tontitown police officer. Body camera footage revealed Cole striking a handcuffed individual following an altercation. Hughes expressed his disagreement with the commission’s decision, emphasizing his efforts to eliminate misconduct in the department, which has faced scrutiny under previous leadership. Cole’s actions were considered problematic but ultimately not criminal.
