JOINT LAW ENFORCEMENT INVESTIGATION LEADS TO ARREST OF TWO MAUMELLE DISPATCHERS FOR CSAM
December 23, 2024 The Arkansas Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, in collaboration with multiple law enforcement agencies, has arrested two men on charges related to child sexual abuse material (CSAM). The first of two arrests stemmed from a cyber tip provided by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) to the Arkansas ICAC Task Force. On Friday, December 20, 2024, the Conway Police Department (CPD), with assistance from U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, executed a residential search warrant on Timberpeg Court in Conway. The search led to the arrest of Matthew Talley, 45, of Conway. Talley, a 911 dispatcher for the City of Maumelle, faces felony charges for possessing, distributing, or viewing sexually explicit material involving minors (CSAM). CPD transported Talley to the Faulkner County Detention Center. Following this arrest, a second operation was conducted Friday evening at the residence of Michael Riggan, 58, in Bryant. During the search, Special Agents found multiple files of CSAM on electronic devices in the home. Riggan was a co-worker of Talley's at the 911 dispatch center in Maumelle.
Agents took Riggan into custody and charged him with 1,000 counts of CSAM. He was transported to the Saline County Detention Center.   This joint effort included ASP ICAC Special Agents, the Bryant Police Department, and the Saline County Sheriff's Office.
