As Winter creeps closer...

Before we know it we'll be dealing with freezing temps and worse yet, extreme Winter weather. The following is some recommended reading provided by the Bates Count Office of Emergency Management and Homeland Security:


Severe Winter Weather

Winter is coming once again, and we all remember the blizzard that Bates County experienced on Feb 2, 2010. Now is the time to familiarize yourself and family with winter safety and safety measures.

Some of the terms used by the National Weather Service used to identify a winter storm hazard are:

Winter Storm Watch indicates that severe winter weather is in the area or expected within 12-48 hours.

Winter Storm Warning indicates severe winter weather is in the area or expected immediately and can be life threatening.

Ice Storm Warning is issued for ice accumulations of a quarter-inch or more.

Rich Hill man sentenced in killing conspiracy

Mike Maushake, 53, was sentenced to four years in the Missouri Department of Corrections for two counts of attempted tampering with a judicial officer and one count of attempted tampering with a witness. Maushake pled guilty to all three counts on October 25th in the Bates County Circuit Court.

Maushake, a prior felony offender, sought a firearm to kill Bates County Associate Judge Debra Hopkins, Bates County Prosecutor Hugh Jenkins, and Rich Hill Marshal Clinton Leer. The Judge, Prosecuting Attorney, and Marshal were involved in a case against Maushake’s wife for felony drug possession. Maushake stated that he wanted to kill “everyone involved with the set-up of his wife.”
