The Baxter County Sheriff’s Office is notifying the public a Level 3 registered sex offender has relocated from Faulkner to Baxter County. Sheriff John Montgomery says 44-year-old Kaleb Smith has moved to 189 Country Life Terrace, in Midway.
Level 3 is considered a high-risk to reoffend. Smith was convicted of two counts of sexual abuse in the second degree and attempted assault in the second degree in November 2006. These offenses involved then 28-year-old Smith physically attacking a 17-year-old female acquaintance, who he began having relations with when she was 16.
Smith is not wanted by law enforcement at this time. This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is the sheriff’s belief an informed public is a safer public. This information cannot be used to threaten, intimidate, or harass registered sex offenders. Citizen abuse will not be tolerated. Such abuse could potentially end law enforcement’s ability to do community notification.
