Someone I do know/trust well enough to know the mom and situation said the father has been arrested. I’ve confirmed the name that I’ve heard as the boyfriend/father was booked on 5/25, transferred to another jail, and is in custody. I don’t really know how much I’m allowed to post since his name...

Oh wow… okay so that first screenshot says she’s 25. I noticed the other Raeleena Bartlett, aged 34, on that site and assumed it was a different person. I found a charge on Casenet for passing a bad check and a warrant was issued in a different county for the older RB; however, when I looked at...

It’s been updated and now there is no photo or charge details and it says she was transferred. No charges filed on case.net in MO as far as I can tell either.

DNA links dead Kansas City, Missouri, infant found in woods to mother “She told police several versions of events, claiming her boyfriend saw the baby choking and locked her out of the bedroom as he tried to restore her breathing. The mother, who had previously told at least one witness that...

I (kind of) know this woman. I haven’t fully processed this and don’t want to say much. Obviously nothing excuses killing a child but I think the laws governing bodily autonomy and the right to choose (after the fact) in Missouri should be contextualized. Abortion has also been effectively...

Qualtrics which is a good option but I think it is also highly customizable and may require confidentiality protection settings to be implemented manually. IME researchers have been asked to address the email and IP address collection to explain how identifiable data will/won’t be...

Having had a chance to look at the actual survey, I can kind of see how it could have been mistakenly determined to be exempt (no greater than minimal risk). It would have still been an incorrect determination based on the fact that the researchers were not collecting directly identifiable...

I haven’t been following this case closely, but as someone that has reviewed and approved student and faculty research (including criminal justice research) for over a decade, that study would/should have been a greater than minimal risk research study that was reviewed and approved by a full...

Excelsior Springs PD is investigating the two other potential victims. “Previously, Excelsior Springs Police had said officially it had no knowledge of any more victims. But a spokesman has now told DailyMail.com exclusively: 'We are taking this accusation of two more women victims seriously...

I’m less familiar w/KCKPD; they were reined in as a result of state (or some other non-local) control? (I’m not convinced local control would necessarily solve most or all of the KCMO’s policing issues but it definitely harms KCPD’s credibility.) But yeah, KCPD’s denial of a rumor of a SK...

As far as potential motives related to their research, I wonder if either worked with embryonic stem cells.

Retaliation by gangs is a factor but KCPD also has a terrible reputation that make them unsafe for citizens, Black citizens in particular, to turn to. They are currently under federal investigation for racism in their own ranks and we’ve had our fair share of police brutality and killings of...

I tried to find them the other day. Facebook’s search is dreadful and some of the groups are private. I did find one post from one of the public groups in the Defender story. He had seemingly been removed from the group by the time I found it because it said he was not a member but a single post...

That’s my hometown. :oops: It’s pretty much one of the first suburbs bordering the city. The south end of Raytown is close (~10 min) to the area of Prospect women are suspected of being missing from.

He said “around that area” when I mentioned Excelsior Springs. We’re in the city so Independence Ave is pretty local/familiar to us while ES isn’t a particularly close suburb so he wouldn’t confuse or conflate the two areas. He’s in trucking and said that he kind of hears these rumors through...
