‼️💰WANTED!💰‼️

City of Rison, Arkansas Mayor Charles Roberts

---

The Pioneer Village's Jail-N-Bail starts NOW! If you don't want to see this criminal behind bars Thursday, August 27 in our very own jail... help them raise their bail money before we call the Sheriff!

A minimum of $250 must be raised in Charles' name by 3 p.m. August 27 or the Cleveland County Sheriff's Department will round him up to be transported to the holding cell.

If you want to contribute to the bail funds, give money to the criminal to have their bail ready... and if you don't trust them, send money via cashapp to $PioneerVillage and make sure to include their name in your sending notes.

What did Charles do? This is what he's being charged for...

‼️ Grand Larceny of Hugs & Handshakes: Unlawfully delaying every municipal errand by 45 minutes because he insists on greeting every single resident he passes by name.

‼️ Aggravated Over-Improvement: Secretly sneaking onto Main Street at 5:00 AM with a bucket of paint to touch up crosswalk lines so the town looks picture-perfect.

‼️ Excessive Hometown Pride: Causing a public disturbance by bragging so loudly about Rison’s local progress that folks in neighboring counties can hear him.

Join us for some fun at the Pioneer Village Thursday, Aug. 27 from 4 to 7 p.m. for a Leon's Catfish and Steak House fundraiser dinner! All proceeds from the dinner and the Jail-N-Bail Event go towards the renovations of the Village's Heritage Hall Project to create a community room and performance hall!

Limited tickets available at My Berry Patch and Cleveland County Herald, or by contacting a Pioneer Village member!
