Dustin P. Horton

     The Sheriff's Office is notifying the public that a Level 2 sex offender (Moderate risk to re-offend with community notification justified) has moved and changed addresses in Baxter County.

NAME:                       DUSTIN P. HORTON

DATE OF BIRTH:   11/23/1979

OLD ADDRESS:      701 Sierra Drive
                                    Mountain Home, AR 72653

NEW ADDRESS:     401 Lincoln Street
                                   Gassville, AR 72635                                  

     The offender was convicted of Sexual Assault in the First Degree on 05/10/2010.  This offense involved the offender engaging in sexual contact with a 5 year old male acquaintance, which occurred while the child was visiting the offender's home.

     This person is not wanted by law enforcement at this time.  This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is our belief that an informed public is a safer public.  This information cannot be used to threaten, intimidate, or harass Registered Sex Offenders.  Citizen abuse will not be tolerated.  Such abuse could potentially end law enforcement's ability to do community notification.
