Impaired Driving Affects Lives Law Enforcement Cracks Down St. Patrick’s Day Weekend.

JEFFERSON CITY, MO – This St. Patrick’s Day weekend, make sure your luck doesn’t run out by planning ahead for a sober ride home should you choose to take part in the celebration. 

The Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety reminds motorists of the various options available to get everyone home safe. Designating a sober driver, calling a cab or using public transportation are just a few of those options.

Preliminary 2017 data indicates that 185 people were killed and 592 seriously injured in crashes involving at least one substance-impaired driver. Fifty-one of those drivers were under the age of 21. Missouri’s Zero Tolerance Law states that drivers under 21 years old caught with even a trace of alcohol in their system will have their licenses suspended.

Besides driving completely sober, motorists are advised to put their cell phones down while driving and always buckle up – everyone, every trip, every time. Buckle Up, Phone Down. “We encourage all drivers to make smart choices so that everyone gets home safe.” said MoDOT Highway Safety Director Bill Whitfield.

To learn more, visit the Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety website at savemolives.com, or follow us on social media at Save MO Lives. Drive sober or get pulled over.

Kingsville man arrested for promoting child porn

The Missouri State Highway Patrol’s Division of Drug and Crime Control announces the arrest of Richard C. Applegate, 39, of Kingsville, Missouri, on March 8, 2018, for promoting child pornography. The arrest was the result of an investigation conducted by members of the Division of Drug and Crime Control’s Digital Forensics Investigative Unit. The Patrol was assisted by the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office.

On Thursday, March 8, 2018, investigators executed a search warrant at Applegate’s residence located on Northwest 1771st Road, in Kingsville, Missouri. As a result of their search, investigators located computer equipment used to commit the crime. Applegate was arrested and transported to the Johnson County Jail.

On Friday, March 9, 2018, the Johnson County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office formally charged Applegate with promoting child pornography in the first degree. Bond was set at $15,000.

The Division of Drug and Crime Control encourages Internet users to report promptly to the Patrol or local law enforcement anyone who attempts to engage in unwanted, inappropriate, or sexualized communications with children. The Digital Forensics Investigative Unit is partially funded by the Missouri Department of Public Safety State Cyber Crime Grant and the Missouri Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

The above charge is a mere accusation and is not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of this charge must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
