The Logan County Sheriff Office is looking for a convicted sex offender who failed to follow through on his responsibility to register with the sheriff’s office as required as part of his August plea agreement and is asking for the public’s help in locating Daniel Edward Wall
Wall, 33, entered a plea of guilty in late August in Logan County Circuit Court to the charge of “Internet Stalking of a Child,” a class “B” Felony after he responded to a police officer that was posing as a 13-year-old online. Wall tried to get the officer to exchange explicit photos and agree to “meet” according to court records out of Franklin County.
In 2012, Wall ran for the Arkansas House of Representatives as a Democrat. He was defeated by State Rep. Jon Eubanks (R-Paris). He was also a Paris Police Department officer.
Wall actually caught a break in his sentencing as three counts of “Computer Child Pornography” were not prosecuted in the plea agreement in exchange for a guilty plea. Wall was placed on seven years supervised probation, ordered to register as a sex offender and pay a fine of $1,500 plus $150 court costs. In addition, Wall was ordered pay a $250 DNA fee, $10 administration fee and $250 sex offender fee.
Logan County sheriff Boyd Dan Hicks issued the following statement on the Logan County Sheriff Facebook account Wednesday afternoon.
“The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office needs your help.
Daniel Wall was convicted of internet stalking of a child and was required to register as a sex offender. He has not done so. If you know his whereabouts please contact the Franklin County sheriff’s office immediately at 479-667-4127.”
