Since 1989, at least 108 people have been charged with an HIV-related crime in Arkansas. HIV-related crimes in the state are disproportionately enforced based on gender and race with Black men particularly overrepresented in HIV-related crimes.
Black men make up 7% of the state’s population, 31% of people living with HIV, and 44% of HIV-related arrests. In addition, of the 14 people currently on Arkansas’ sex offender registry for an HIV-related conviction, half are Black men, though they make up only 22% of the overall population on the registry.
