Franklin County Prosecutor Office

Phone: 479-667-0544
They prosecute adults accused of felony crimes and juveniles accused of delinquent acts. ... County prosecuting attorneys begin criminal casework once they have determined that law enforcement officers have collected enough evidence to suggest a felony offense has been committed.
The prosecutor has three main tasks: to investigate crimes, to decide whether or not to instigate legal proceedings and to appear in court. The prosecutor investigates crimes together with the police. ... If it is a minor crime, and the suspect admits his or her guilt, the prosecutor imposes a fine.
