The Baxter County Sheriff’s Office is notifying the public that a Level 3 sex offender, someone who is at high risk to re-offend, has moved to Baxter County from Marion County.

Forty-four-year-old Kenneth Skillings now resides at 101 Su Lane.

Skillings was convicted of rape of a child in the second degree in 1995. Documentation indicates this offense involved the offender engaging in sexual contact with a 12-year-old female.

Baxter County Sheriff John Montgomery says Skillings is not wanted by law enforcement at this time. This notification is not intended to increase fear; rather it is the department’s 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.
