ASH FLAT, Ark. – On Wednesday, Terry “Woodstock” Long, 65, was convicted of 14 counts of rape in Sharp County Circuit Court.

In June of 2023, the Sharp County Sheriff’s Office requested Arkansas State Police assist in investigating Long after the office received a report from the Arkansas Crimes Against Children Unit that a 64-year-old male had sexually assaulted a minor. On June 15, 2023, Long was arrested for Rape.

Special Agents examined the contents of Long’s computer and cell phone along with the victim’s cellphone, and the evidence recovered was presented to a Sharp County jury, who found Long guilty.

Sharp County Circuit Judge Rob Ratton sentenced Long to 560 years in the Arkansas Department of Corrections.
