How to Read an Arkansas DOC Inmate Record for Someone at Randall L. Williams Correctional Facility

If you're looking at an Arkansas Division of Correction (ADC) inmate page for someone housed at Randall L. Williams Correctional Facility, it can feel like a wall of codes and dates. Here's how to read the key fields you'll actually see, and what each section is telling you.

The ADC inmate page is the main snapshot of who someone is in ADC's system and where they're currently housed. Near the top, you'll see identifying information like their ADC number and name. The page also shows the current facility assignment, so you can confirm you're looking at the right person and the right location before relying on anything else in the record.

For someone listed at Randall L. Williams Cor. Facility, the page shows the facility name along with both a Facility Address and a Mailing Address. The address shown is 7206 W. 7th Ave., Pine Bluff, AR 71603, which gives you a quick way to confirm the location on the record.

Start with the identifying block at the top of the page. You'll typically see the ADC number (the most reliable identifier for searches and paperwork) along with the person's full name. That same area lists basic descriptors: race, sex, hair color, eye color, height, weight, and birth date. These details help confirm identity, especially when names are similar. You'll also see an Initial Receipt Date right alongside the identifying details. This is a key timeline marker that helps you understand how long the person has been in ADC custody overall, separate from any single case entry you might see later in the sentence history.

In that same top section, the page shows a Custody Classification field. On Randall L. Williams inmate pages, you may see a code like "C3." Think of this as a classification label displayed alongside other custody and sentence-related fields. It's a code, not a plain-English description.

Right near custody classification, you'll see a Good Time Class field. On Randall L. Williams records, examples include "I-C" and "III." This is a class code on the page, so read it as the category ADC currently lists for the person rather than something you can interpret from the letters alone.

Another date in that same summary area is the PE/TE Date. The record shows it as a specific calendar date (for example, 01/27/2022 on one record), labeled directly as "PE/TE Date" on the page.

The summary area also includes Total Time, shown as the person's total sentence length in years. On Randall L. Williams inmate pages, examples include "55 yrs." and "30 yrs." The key detail: Total Time is a single total-length field in the overview, separate from the individual line items in the sentence history section.

Scroll down to "Current Prison Sentence History" for the case-by-case breakdown. This section is laid out as a list of sentence entries. Each one shows the offense name, sentence date, county, case number, and sentence length. If there are multiple lines, read each one as its own entry. The offense name tells you what the line is about. The sentence date anchors the timing, and the county and case number help you match it to court paperwork. Sentence length is shown right in the same row, so you can compare entries without guessing what goes with what.

If the person has completed programming, you may see a "Program Achievements" section. It lists programs by name and gives a Date of Completion for each one. On Randall L. Williams records, examples include Stress Management (with a completion date like 07/20/2009) and Parenting (with a completion date like 05/28/2010). If you're tracking progress over time, focus on the program name and the date shown on that line.

The page can also include a "Major Guilty Disciplinary Violations" section. When it appears, it lists each violation by name with a date. For example, you might see Battery (10/11/2023), Threat(s) To Inflict Injury (10/11/2023), or Escape (06/25/2024). Read this section as a straightforward log of major guilty violations and the dates next to them.

Note: The Detainers section states that further information may be obtained by contacting the detaining agency. If you need details about a detainer, the page is pointing you to contact that agency directly.

Some inmate pages include a Risk Score/Level history tied to facilities and dates. You may see entries specifically labeled for Randall L. Williams Cor. Facility with a date and a risk level, such as "Minimum" on 05/20/2024. Because entries show both the facility name and a date, read this as a timeline of recorded risk level entries, not a single permanent label.

A lot of the frustration with reading the ADC page comes from fields that are displayed but never defined. The record may show a Custody Classification code like C3 or a Good Time Class code like I-C, but the page doesn't explain what those codes mean in daily practice or how they affect release planning. The same goes for Total Time. It's displayed as a single total sentence length, but the page doesn't spell out how that total is computed across multiple sentence entries or how other rules may affect it. If you need a clear definition, treat the page as a starting point: use the exact labels and codes you see (Custody Classification, Good Time Class, Total Time) when asking questions through official ADC sources. For detainers, follow the page's own direction and contact the detaining agency for more information.

You may also see a section labeled "Court Orders (Order of Protection, No Contact Order)." On some records, this field shows "No," meaning there are no active court orders listed in that spot on the inmate page. If you're making decisions based on this field (for example, whether contact is allowed), don't treat the page as your only source. Use it as a prompt to confirm details through the court that issued any order or through the appropriate official channel.
