CORRUPTION TRIAL
CABOT, Ark - A former small-town police chief and his wife were
sentenced to long prison terms Tuesday for running a criminal
organization dealing in drugs and jewelry. Prosecutors portrayed
former Lonoke Chief Jay Campbell as running his department as a king
and ignoring claims that his wife, Kelly, was having a sexual
relationship with an inmate.
Special Circuit Judge John Cole followed jury recommendations and
sentenced the former chief to 40 years in prison, Kelly Campbell was
sentenced to 20 years.
