The Arkansas Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Arkansas is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: the state runs an online name-based background check open to the public, through the Arkansas State Police. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
To see your own record, the route is a request to the Arkansas State Police Identification Bureau. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at dps.arkansas.gov/crime-info-support/arkansas-crime-information-cent....
Arrest Records Kept Locally in Rogers
The Benton County Sheriff's Office and the agency that reports for Rogers (filed by the FBI as Rogers Police Department) keep the arrest records in and around Rogers: the report and the booking record of each arrest stay with the agency that made it, separate from the court file and from the state repository.
The FBI's agency list also places these agencies in Benton County: the State Park at Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area (state agency); Northwest Arkansas Community College (campus police); Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport (other agency); each keeps the records of its own arrests.
The Springdale Police Department is listed by the FBI across two counties including Benton County, so its arrests are not broken out for Benton County here.
Together, the 14 agencies in Benton County with all twelve months of 2025 on file reported 12,275 arrests to the FBI that year; how each case ended is in the court file, not in the arresting agency's.
