The Jackson Parish Sheriff’s Office assisted the Winn Parish Sheriff’s Office in the arrest of Joshua Searcy of Jonesboro, following an extensive narcotics investigation conducted by Winn Parish. Their investigation led to an arrest warrant for Distribution of Schedule II Narcotics (Methamphetamine) for Mr. Searcy.

On November 17, 2025, Jackson Parish deputies located and arrested Mr. Searcy after receiving information regarding the warrant. He was later transferred to the Winn Parish Detention Center, where he remains in custody.

We appreciate the hard work of the Winn Parish Sheriff’s Office and the efforts of Sheriff Josh McAllister and his deputies. By working together, we can better serve and protect all of our communities and respond more effectively to drug activity in our area.
