LITTLE ROCK, AR (Ben Caxton) — In 1988 Donald Deaton of McGehee was convicted of burglary and theft of property in Drew County. Banks resident Jeremy Davis was convicted in 1996 of five counts of residential burglary and four counts of commercial burglary in Chicot County. Now in 2020 with their sentences completed, all fines paid, and no additional violations over the years, the two men are on a list of fifteen people about to be pardoned for their crimes by current Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson. There is a 30-day waiting period to receive public feedback on the notices before final action is taken and local law enforcement officials in both counties have said they have no objection to the Governor’s proposed pardons.
