A Paris woman who served less than two years of a prison sentence on drug charges and permitting the abuse of a minor that contributed to the death of her 19-month-old daughter in 2018 was back in jail Wednesday on Felony Petition to Revoke charges.
Sierra Ann Johnson was booked into the Sebastian County Detention Center on the Class D Felony Petition to Revoke charge. Johnson spent just a little more than three hours in jail on Wednesday before being released on a $2500 signature bond.
It appears the violation that triggered the petition to revoke was an August 21 arrest for Possession of Schedule VI Controlled Substance for Purpose of Delivery and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
Johnson, who left Kyla in the care of her then-boyfriend Tyree La’Mont Williams on the day. of her death in 2018, pled guilty to the charges that sent her to prison in that incident.
Johnson received a ten-year sentence plus ten years of suspended imposition of seetence on the Permitting Child Abuse charge at that time. She also received two six-year sentences on two class D Felonies and one years for a misdemeanor violation, with all sentences set to run concurrently.
She also agreed to testify truthfully against her ex-boyfriend Williams as part of the sweetheart deal with the Sebastian County Prosecutors office.
Johnson had also been arrested in May of 2021 after her release from prison and charged with driving with a suspended license, Class B misdemeanor failure to appear and misdemeanor possession of Schedule VI controlled substances.
Johnson reportedly has had another child after being jailed on the 2018 charges.
Williams was later sentenced to 40 years for First Degree Murder on yet another plea agreement brokered by the Sebastian County Prosecutor's office.
