Waylon Coker

     The Sheriff's Office is notifying the public that a sex offender who has just been released from the Arkansas Division of Corrections has registered with the Sheriff's Office and is now residing in Baxter County.  He has been assessed as a Level 2 Offender (moderate risk to re-offend with community notification justified). 

NAME:                       WAYLON COKER

DATE OF BIRTH:   09/16/1982

HOME ADDRESS:   34 CR 548

                                    Mountain Home, AR 72653

     The offender was convicted of Sexual Assault in the First Degree on 06/22/2015.  The offense involved the offender engaging in sexual contact with a then 13 year old female.

     This person is not wanted by law enforcement at this time.  This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is our belief that 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.

    Baxter County Sheriff
