Former Administrator of Horatio High School sentenced to six years in ADC

A former administrator of Horatio High School convicted last week of sexual assault and was sentenced to six years in Arkansas Department of Corrections on Monday.

Labrada Vann, 42, received the six year prison sentence following a three-day trial in the Sevier County Circuit Court last week. In addition, the court set a $250,000 appeals bond.

Vann was found guilty by a jury on Friday on a single count of first-degree sexual assault. The charge resulted from an inappropriate relationship Vann maintained with a student while serving as the vice-principal of Horatio High School.

Vann was arrested in April of 2022 after the Sevier County Sheriff’s Office was contacted by the Arkansas Crimes Against Children Hotline in reference to a possible inappropriate relationship between Vann and a student. The sheriff’s office began an investigation into the allegations and an arrest warrant was then issued for Vann.
