Former Harrison Surgeon Sentenced for Patient Assault

FAULKNER COUNTY, AR. - Guy Langley Peeples, a physician who previously practiced medicine in both the Harrison and Conway areas, has been convicted and sentenced following a series of sexual assault charges.

The convictions stem from an incident on November 10, 2025, at Baptist Health in Conway. According to court records and previous reporting, the assault was witnessed by a nurse who was monitoring the patient via a video feed as a safety precaution for fall risks. The footage revealed Peeples inappropriately touching the victim and forcing the patient to make contact with his body.

Following the initial report to the Conway Police Department, detectives filed a rape warrant against Peeples. The case eventually moved to the Faulkner County Circuit Court, where he faced multiple charges, including one count of rape and three counts of second-degree sexual assault.

In addition to the November incident, court documents reveal that another woman came forward with accusations against Peeples. This second victim alleged that the doctor engaged in non-consensual sexual contact during medical examinations conducted on March 11 and April 2, 2025.

The judicial process concluded this week with the delivery of Peeples' sentence, which for the rape conviction was 15 years in prison. Additionally, he received five more years in prison and a $15,000 fine for the charge of second-degree sexual assault.

While the primary sentencing has been handed down, legal proceedings regarding additional allegations continue to move forward according to online court documents.
