Oct. 22, 2026 · Benton County Jail records

143 people are in the county jail on Rogers police arrests. 13 of them are charged with rape or sexual assault.

Rogers doesn't publish a monthly crime report the way Fayetteville does. So we counted what the public Benton County jail roster shows: 143 people in custody on Rogers police arrests as of October 22.

Of those, 13 are held on rape or sexual assault charges and 7 on aggravated assault. Another 33 are held on assault and battery, and 20 of those are domestic. That is more than half.

143 Rogers PD arrests on file, Oct. 22

How to read these numbers

These count people still in custody on Rogers police arrests, not incidents reported in a month. They are not the same kind of number as Fayetteville's, so do not set the two side by side.

The jail roster does show when each person was booked: 23 of these 143 were booked so far in October and 20 in September. Older months look smaller because people booked then are more likely to be released already, so this is not a month-by-month trend.

One person can be charged with more than one thing, so a person can show up in more than one row. A murder entry can be a pending warrant the jail is holding the person on. People who were arrested and have already been released are not counted, so these are a floor, not the full picture.

An arrest is an accusation. It is not a conviction.
