What the Arkansas DOC Inmate Search Page Shows (and What It Doesn’t) — How to Read an Entry for Someone at Randall L. Williams
When you pull up someone's entry on the Arkansas Division of Correction (ADC) inmate search and they're housed at Randall L. Williams, the top of the page helps you confirm you've found the right person. You'll see their full name and ADC number (listed as
If the person is listed at Randall L. Williams, the inmate page may also display the facility's address. Look for both a "Facility Address" and a "Mailing Address" for Randall L. Williams Cor. Facility shown directly on the entry.
Further down, you'll find two fields families often look for first: "Custody Classification" and "Good Time Class." These appear as labeled lines - something like "Custody Classification C3" with a "Good Time Class" value next to it. These labels show what ADC has on file at that moment. They're especially helpful if you're comparing older screenshots or trying to understand why someone's status looks different than before. Just keep in mind: the inmate search page displays the classification as a snapshot, not a full explanation of what the codes mean.
In the same area, you'll see time-related fields that can be confusing at first glance. There's a line labeled "PE/TE Date*" with a date value, and another labeled "Total Time*" showing the total sentence time. These fields appear as short labels with asterisks. Treat them as reference points from the ADC record - not a step-by-step breakdown of how anything was calculated.
The inmate page includes a "Current Prison Sentence History" section formatted as a table. Each row lists an offense with columns for Offense, Sentence Date, County, Case #, and Sentence Length. If you're trying to match this with paperwork you already have, those column headings are the quickest way to line up what's on screen with your court documents.

If there are entries under "Major Guilty Disciplinary Violations," the page lists them by violation type and date. You might see something like "Unexcused Absence" followed by the date it was recorded.
Some ADC inmate records include a "Risk Score/Level" section. This area shows entries with a location (like a unit or facility name), a date completed, and the risk score/level for that entry. When scanning this section, focus on the facility name and date - they tell you when a particular risk level was recorded and where it was associated.
- Check the dated entry for Randall L. Williams - One example entry shows “Randall L. Williams Cor. Facility 11/16/2023 Maximum.”
- Look for later updates at the same facility - Another entry shows “Randall L. Williams Cor. Facility 08/23/2024 Maximum.”
Before relying on anything you see, look near the top for the line that says "Information current as of." That timestamp tells you when ADC last updated the page (you might see something like "Information current as of 01/27/2026"). If you're comparing notes with family or tracking changes over time, that date matters as much as the numbers themselves.
Note: The inmate page shows fields like Custody Classification, Good Time Class, PE/TE Date*, and Total Time* - but it doesn't define those terms or explain how they're calculated. For definitions or details on how a date was determined, check official ADC resources or contact the facility directly.
