I hope all those bleeding hearts,- give the man a chance,-he’s served his time- morons will now wake up! This man is evil and people should treat him like the psycho he is.. Glad Sheridan has him, maybe they can keep him locked up away from the public!!!!! Hey Doug Kidd, feel like he has been rehabilitated and needs a chance? Let’s let him work in the courthouse with all the records… what?!? People should be worried about rabid Danny Boy as well as the dogs in the county……

Early articles on this say Harmon has been under investigation for 6 months — my first question would be who was the investigating agency — apparently Sheridan. That is the most interesting thing about this arrest so far — why wasn’t Benton / Saline County Sheriff’s office on top of all of this?

Harmon was arrested for delivery of morphine and hydrocodone which, if one wanted to speculate, he could have gotten from “Operation Medicine Cabinet”. I may be the only one, but I remember well all of the connections from the Harmon heydays , and there is nothing to indicate anything has changed.

And BTW, this scenario is of course wild speculation, but really not so far fetched — the last time he was arrested it was because he and his wife had obtained drugs from the drug task force evidence locker. It will be interesting to see what comes out of all of this.

Ha! I am surprised it took this long… One of his first hook-ups when he was released was with Lil Buddy Drennan, he seemed to need to borrow a large sum of money for some reason.???

And that was a very interesting observation about maybe being linked to “Operation Medicine Cabinet”…WOW!…

Benton is a dirty town isn’t it?! …Yall remember our police chief and Danny Boy are old buddies from the 1980’s. One could even wonder if there wasn’t a little blackmail involved…or is this just another example of ‘the good ol’ boy system.

Not only was he investigated for public corruption and illegal drug sales, he was charged, tried and convicted of them for which he was sentenced to a measly 11 years in federal prison. He was then given a reduction in sentence and released early.

Maybe he can share a cell with Jay. I wouldn’t put to much faith in the Grant Cty system though.

I don’t think to much of their Prosecuting Attorney or their Judges. Signed…

Since Sheridan law enforcement has been making buys off of Harmon for months, it is obvious “Operation Medicine Cabinet” had nothing to do with the source of his drugs. But IMHO, in Saline County, “Operation Medicine Cabinet” is an open invitation for abuse.

“Bring us your pills and we’ll destroy them for you”, wink, wink.

You may be sure that if law enforcement in Sheridan was aware of Harmon’s drug dealing, so was Saline County. It certainly was no secret to most citizens — so why does it take an outside agency to do something about it?

—–Reply byJack Ross on February 18, 2010 at 9:39am

I never read these words in the article : has been making buys off of Harmon for months

I did read “under investigation” for six months, which perhaps meant they have gone through several cases of Krispy Kremes

parked near his residence… or, maybe it was more personal. The article didn’t elaborate.

One thing I am sure of… no way in hell is the guy getting special treatment. The community loves to watch him fall on his face.

If the story isn’t humiliating enough for some, they add what they wish it said… just to make it more interesting, and dramatic when telling it tonight at Church. lol

Quoting from the Dem-Gaz article: ” the police made buys” from him meaning informants or officers bought the pills from him . . . .

Cole called Harmon a dangerous man. . .” .

“A six month investigation by a drug task force and the Sheridan Police Department led to his arrest.”

Sounds pretty clear to me, and I think most in the county are aware that Harmon has gotten special treatment for years. If I had added what I WISHED it had said it would have stated he was arrested for murder.

The fact that this vermon was out of prison in the first place is just further evidence that we have a very sophisticated and elaborate “LEGAL” system but it has almost nothing to do with JUSTICE!

Benton is a dirty town isn’t it?! I know everyone here has heard this said of Benton and Saline County since the ’80’s. It’s stated as fact all over the state.

It might as well replace whatever slogan is displayed on our welcome signs on the highway. This reputation is why I initially doubted the legitimacy of Harmon’s arrest yesterday.

It would be interesting to hear what some of our local law enforcement has to say on the topic. That is something I never hear.

—–Reply byJBlevins on February 18, 2010 at 8:56pm

Yeah Yeah Yeah same old story only the names have been spun to protect the guilty…

Hey anyone remember way back in the 90’s the Dan Harmon machine… Well if not it goes something like this… Pause…

There are more dead bodies in cemetaries in Saline, Grant,Garland, and yes Pulaski County than I care to remember but one thing all this has in common is Dan Harmon… Strange isn’t it that this guy is a convicted felon does his time then gets paroled or whatever and next thing you know he is working for the county again…

Judge Fite told me that THEY decided that he should get a job so’s that he can draw a retirement, cause he was such a stellar employee of the county and all…

Well seems that Mr Harmon has more dirt on the whole gang of thugs than they would like so Boom just like that he is arrested on drug charges AGAIN…HMMMMMM makes me wonder quite a bit about all the things that have been going on in the forementioned counties since way back in the 1950’s…

You wonder why people from all 4 corners of this state always ax me what the heck is going on in MY county and I tell them the same thing that is going on in each and every county, town, and State in America…

MONEY=Corruption+Power+Greed+Deceit…

Thats the American way and this is just another example of who gets to send there kids and friends and cronies and people to Parker Cadillac once a year on the backs and the mistakes of the poor and the downtrodden…

In other words all this can be simplified in one simple way…

Do Not Lie…Do not cheat…Do not steal…

And never ever ever trust anyone in the local governments of Saline, Grant, Pulaski, etc. etc counties cause its not about right or wrong its about the money…Isn’t that right Judge Cole…

Jade, I know you do not care for me but I could not have put it any better. Last I heard about (deal those drugs Dan) Harmon he had a job with the county on the hush hush so he could get a retirement check from the county. I am glad that my information was far fetched.

Maybe he will see the light and work a deal but we all know what that deal is and if that deal is struck there will be many more people going to jail and else where. Good Post.

I wouldn’t count on local police to comment. On the night that Lane’s appointment was being brought up to vote to overturn Holland’s debacle, every officer was in a meeting with Holland, Lane , and Bucky Ellis.

Bucky Ellis told every officer pretty much what he spouted off in the meeting. His message in short was that Linda Ives was a kook and everything she said was a lie.

Now I am in no way saying that every officer believes or supports what Mr. Ellis said. Only saying that she was smeared as a nut job in the meeting.

At some point, people are going to start making the connections that what she has been saying all along is the truth. Jay Campbell and Dan Harmon have pretty much proven that by their actions.

A couple of questions I would ask if I were a local reporter:

1. 1. How does Doug Kidd feel about Dan Harmon now?
   2. Does he feel like he owes SC an apology?
   3. If Kirk Lane was such a stand up candidate for COP, should not his own merits have been enough to get him the job without a local attorney smearing a citizen for merely pointing out his past track record to the public?

—–Reply byJBlevins on February 18, 2010 at 9:48pm

I don’t really know or care where to start on this one but did you ever once stop and take a good look at what all this is really all about…COPS are not all bad but there are more than a few bad ones here in Saline County…Just like there are some bad people who are behind the scenes doing the stuff that we neither know or hear about firsthand, just is a bad situation watching these same 5 or 6 people getting over on everyone and noone can stop them cause like cancer they have spread to all our major organs…

—–Reply byRoger Hamilton on February 18, 2010 at 11:18pm

Dan Harmon’s drug habits have nothing to do with Operation Medicine Cabinet. I cannot believe that Linda Ives cannot see the fact that Dan Harmon is the guy who had her boy killed. He was the one that police suspected for years of corrupt activities but you people of Saline Co. continued to elect him the prosecuting attorney (the chief law enforcement officer for the county). Then once he is finally convicted, someone hires him to have access to legal records in the Saline County Courthouse. When will you ever learn. If they do not put Dan Harmon in prison for a very very long time, this time around, then you all get what you deserve. There is nothing wrong with the police department or the evidence locker. Dan Harmon needs to be put behind bars as he is the perfect example of corruption. Why can’t you people see this?

—–Reply byRoger Hamilton on February 18, 2010 at 11:28pm

The one thing that holds true and that is when you catch a corrupt public official, especially one that is supposed to have been the chief law enforcement officer for Saline Co. Dan Harmon and you convict him of being corrupt, you make an example out of him. He thumbed his nose at the FBI, the US Attorney’s Office and everyone else. He got out of jail and they gave him a job in the Courthouse? What do you expect? I will be most of you voted for Doug Kidd because he was a nice guy.? In my opinion, get a rope.

i bet Benton and Saline County people had something to do with 9/11 also. yep, i bet it was Kirk Lane & Rick Holland who planted a bomb in the WTC! They may have even been involved with the IRS building yesterday in Texas.

Whats strange to me is he took his activities to Sheridan.

Have any of you conspiracy theorists considered that perhaps the COP, Sheriff, or someone else told him that if he wanted to push drugs not to do it here or he would have hell to pay?

—–Reply byJack Ross on February 19, 2010 at 10:02am

The guy is a brilliant attorney. You have to consider that has something to do with his short prison sentence.

I believe he refused any outside legal council, and represented himself on all the corruption, and drug charges. Too bad he chose to use his talent this way.

Hawk,

I read this on insidesaline “Dan Harmon was visible in Benton and Saline County for quite a while following his parole from federal prison in 2006. He performed various jobs, including organizing case files in the office of Circuit Clerk Doug Kidd. Then Harmon’s acquaintances said they hadn’t seen him a while and weren’t sure what the former prosecuting attorney was doing.”

I made my assumption based on that staement, just as everyone else on here is making wild assumptions. Such as “perhaps the drugs came from Operation Medicine Cabinet”. I have no use for Danny boy, but there are alot of things being said about others on here.

And what about the girl that threw her 2 year old out of the car? What’s up with that? And the road rage over in Malvern.

We need to get the noose out, line these three up and set an example. This crap of putting people away for a couple of years doesn’t work. It is time for harsh, public, and painfull dicipline.

How do you know the scope of his activities? Can any one of you affirm that he wasn’t also plying his trade in Saline, or Hot Spring counties? The only thing we know for sure is that Grant County had the resolve to put a stop to it!

—–Reply byChris on February 19, 2010 at 11:21am

I wonder if all of Dan Harmon’s buddies in Benton are the ones that hooked him up with that super high class job as a cook at the Waffle House. I mean afterall… you need some major connections for that gig!

We should investigate that. Perhaps Waffle House is also an under cover front for a massive Saline County drug cartel.

Dan Harmon no doubt was a brilliant attorney and could have had a stellar career in law but chose a life of crime. Though he initially stated he intended to defend himself at trial, he ultimately declared himself indigent and got a court appointed attorney of his choice named Lea Ellen Fowler. Paula Casey, then U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District chose a prosecutor who admitted he knew nothing about RICO law. It didn’t even take much effort for Fowler to outwit and outsmart the federal prosecutor. A sentiment shared by the Special Agent in charge of the Arkansas FBI who oversaw the case., I. C. Smith, who after retiring, wrote a book about his days in the FBI and included a chapter on Harmon which he titled “Unpardonable”. In it, he shares details of how the U.S. Attorney’s office did everything they could to gut the case. The following are excerpts from the book:

“Paula Casey (U.S. Attorney) and Michael Johnson (Assistant U.S. Attorney in charge of the case) and I met with the strike team the afternoon of December 6 to make final preparations. We discussed each of the eleven locations where search warrants were to be served and what was to be siezed, then the meeting broke up. Later that evening, Johnson called me to say no searches were to be conducted at the various attorneys offices, though he admitted there was sufficient probable cause to include them. . . .an incredible turn of events that had not even been hinted at just a few hours previous. I told him “I will call Washington and advise them once again that your office has demonstrated a lack of commitment to working corruption cases.” Further, I was going to take some action the next day, search warrants or not, and his office could be involved or not.” . . . I had pulled in agents from all over the state to conduct the early morning raids and I wasn’t about to send them home without doing something. Within a few minutes Paula Casey called. She was obviously unhappy with my position and told me — Like it or not, you have to work with Michael (Johnson) I told her I had no problem working with Johnson, but I did have a problem with an eleventh-hour decision to not search the offices of the lawyers, a decision we had discussed for days prior to the final preparation of the warrants. Finally we agreed that searches would be conducted on the offices of the DTF, Harmon’s office and the Saline County Circuit Court. The number of searches had gone from eleven to three. Casey did promise more search warrants would be issued for the attorney’s offices at a later date. We in the FBI found that hilarious since any attorneys who thought they may have exposure would scarcely leave incriminating files lying around after the first round of searches. Of course the remaining eight search warrants were never served. The searches were made with much fanfare, as the press quickly picked up on the story and news cameras and reporters were everywhere . . . . In the days, then weeks, then months that followed, I was besieged with phone calls from the media wanting to know the status of the investigation — when Harmon was going to be arrested and what was taking so long. . . . . I finally told one tenacious reporter . . . that the case was in the hands of the U.S. Attorney. . . . . a full year after the original search, no action had been taken and (for Harmon and the DTF) it was business as usual. Finally, one afternoon Casey called and said she wanted to discuss the Harmon prosecution but could only do it on a Sunday afternoon. I was incredulous, but told her we would be there. . . . . .Joining Casey was a seasoned assistant named Dan Stripling. It was a cold and rainy afternoon, made even more miserable by Stripling’s morose attitude. We were pushing for an indictment under Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organization, or a RICO statute — with a twist. The principal source of funding for the DTF was federal funds, so we were proposing that a federally funded entity was being operated as a corrupt organization. During the discussion Stripling resisted the plan and increasingly looked at his watch as he had tickets to a recital that afternoon. Finally, he sputtered, “I don’t know why I’m arguing against a RICO indictment when I don’t know anything about RICO law anyway! I resisted the impulse to agree with him. “

After sitting through the trial and watching a bumbling prosecutor be outplayed by Harmon’s attorney at every turn, and especially after reading I.C. Smith’s book, my humble opinion is that the U.S. Attorney’s office was protecting Harmon and 8 local attorneys. You can draw you own conclusions about whether the feds cleaned up the corruption in Benton.

A dope dealer sell his stuff wherever and whenever he can. Dan Harmon is not tied into the police. I was one of the first police officers who wanted to catch him dirty when he and Jim Steed would divide up the money that was seized after one of the Saline Co. deputies made a big stop on the I -30. The deputy would find $25,000 cash, the car would go to Danny Harmon as part of Harmon’s fee for representing him, the Sheriff would get some of the case, Danny Harmon would get some of the cash and Joe Hardin, the then prosecuting atty would get whatever was left. But no one was interested in Harmon at the time. Just look at all of the cases Joe Kelly Hardin never prosecuted.

His response in court:

Dan Harmon told a judge what several of his longtime acquaintances in Benton say he has acknowledged several times: Women have been his biggest downfall in life.

The former prosecuting attorney, who was released from federal prison four years ago, pleaded innocent to drug charges Tuesday in Grant County Circuit Court at Sheridan.

Harmon, 65, allegedly gave prescription painkillers to two women in exchange for a look at their breasts, according to court documents. Later, Harmon, who has been divorced four times, allegedly sold two morphine tablets to a woman for $50. Sheridan police arrested Harmon on Feb. 17. He was ordered held on two felony charges of delivery of a controlled substance. He was allegedly dealing drugs near schools, police said, and had been under investigation for months. He is being held on $100,000 bond.

Harmon, a native of Benton, is being represented by lawyer Mark Hampton of Little Rock. Hampton, formerly of Benton, represented David Pierce in 2009. Pierce, the former minister of music at Benton’s First Baptist Church, was sentenced to prison for sexual misconduct with boys.

It is well documented that authorities have turned a blind eye to Harmon’s crimes for years. The only reason he was finally arrested in 1997 was because he had become so blatant in his crimes — it was almost as if he was daring them to do something about it.

In a book written by the director of the FBI in Arkansas, I.C. Smith, who arrived in Arkansas in 1995, stated that Harmon had become an embarrassment to the criminal justice system. He also detailed how the U.S. Attorney’s office literally gutted the case against Harmon by quashing search warrants on at least 8 local attorneys’ offices.

Harmon could not have committed the crimes he did without a lot of help, and MANY locals were feeding at the trough. MANY of the players from Harmon’s past are involved with this latest case against Harmon.

Of special interest to me, is Mark Hampton who Harmon says will be his attorney. Hampton once described himself as a very close friend of Jay Campbell and he also represented Kelly Campbell in her criminal trial. All we need now is for Judge John Cole to come out of retirement to hear the case, just as he served as the judge in Campbell’s case in Lonoke.

—–Reply byLinda Ives on February 24, 2010 at 3:17pm

Then there is the lady from a very high profile local business who testified, I believe in the 1990 federal grand jury, that she prepared a big thick envelope of cash for Steed to pick up each week.

Lest anyone forget, another ole’ bud of Harmon’s was given a sweet deal last year — former Sheridan Police Chief David Hooks was charged with 17 felony counts — embezzlement, mail fraud, etc., etc. Seems he wrote at least 356 checks on public funds for personal items totaling more than $60,000.00.

After an 8 month long federal investigation, funded by us taxpayers, they let him plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of conversion of public property — a lawn mower, a dog carrier, and a telephone. He received two years probation. The real kicker is — the feds say they were forced to do this because “a judge” stated that some of the items found at Hooks home could not be used as evidence. I can smell the stink in Sheridan and I think it is about to get deeper.

They will never put Harmon in the general population for that reason. Jay Campbell was sent out of state for his protection and now that he has been allowed to plead to 4 minor charges, he is on permanent assignment at the ADC Diagnostic Unit until he is released 4/18/10. Kelly Campbell will have served longer than Jay Campbell did when she is released in September.
