Woman Faces Y Felony After Gun Stolen From Jonesboro Home

JONESBORO, Ark. — A woman is facing a Class Y felony charge after police said video showed her entering a home and leaving with a stolen handgun.

Erica Elizabeth Henn was arrested for aggravated residential burglary, a Class Y felony; theft of a firearm valued at less than $2,500, a Class D felony; and possession of a firearm by certain persons, a Class D felony.

According to the probable cause affidavit, officers were dispatched June 10 to the 1400 block of West Monroe Avenue in reference to a stolen firearm. The victim, who is deaf, told police he woke up to uninvited people inside his home and told them to leave. When he went to retrieve his firearm, he noticed it was missing and contacted police.

Investigators said video from the residence showed Henn entering the home without the victim opening the door. Later, she was seen leaving through the front door while carrying a dark-colored handgun in her left hand, according to the affidavit.

Police said Henn later admitted entering the residence and leaving with the handgun. She also told detectives where the gun was located, allowing them to recover it.

Henn is also a convicted felon, according to the affidavit.

Bond was set at $150,000 cash or surety. Her next court date is July 30.

  1. I think that young people/child(ren)/juveniles have used and abused the child protection program associated with the social services of the states to get away with being held accountable for their actions forcing the judicial system to deal with them which is creating a problem with the penial system and probation and parole boards. I’m not saying that the child protection program doesn’t work but it needs to be over hauled and those trained to work in the field should actually know when a child is being truly abused or just crying wolf because they are not getting their way. So many families lose their kids over trying to teach them right from wrong or fall between the cracks for qualifying for programs that are meant to help keep families together not pull them apart. Then charge the parent(s) for neglect when it is the system that has failed not the parent.

What do you think?
