Crime

Before I began this radio adventure more than 40 years ago, I worked in a Missouri retail store. You would not believe the crazy things I saw stolen back in those days and the same can be said about the most stolen stuff from Missouri grocery stores these days. It's mind-blowing how low some folks will go to get something for nothing.

Guard your heart. That's not something that was shared in a greeting card on Valentine's Day, but a serious warning just issued for Missouri residents from the Secret Service. Yes, the Secret Service.

I remember when this happened. What none of us realized in 1982 was how murders in Illinois would eventually change product bottles forever and it all started in Elk Grove Village.

I'm a dad so I'm all about saving money. However, I'm not willing to do it if it will jeopardize my life or that of my family. That's kind of the issue with what has just been named Kansas City, Missouri's cheapest neighborhood. Yes, it's cheap, but boy oh boy does it have some terrifying issues.

This is not someone's opinion or one of the internet's infamous trivial top 10 lists. This is pure data that shows one of the top 10 least expensive places in America is in Missouri and there's a sad reason why.

I drive a vehicle that is now 18 years old so it's not surprising my car is not on the list of the most stolen vehicles in Missouri, but there are 3 models that get ripped off from their owners more than any others.

I cannot say this about many topics in life, but I have become something of a moving expert. Thanks to my career, I've lived in just about every state in the country and that includes Illinois. Here are 5 cities I've learned you need to avoid like they're the plague if you decide Illinois is where you need to be.

This is a great time of year to see eagles in Missouri. However, some loser (or losers) took advantage of the majestic symbols of America migrating across the state and shot one of the birds killing it near Rolla. Authorities are now asking for your help in finding whoever did this.

I tend to be very naive. I'm been in and through Kansas City, Missouri so many times in my life, but never realized the gang presence that I was accidentally so very close to. A map shows what gangs are in this western Missouri metro and why they should be feared.

If you live in Illinois and have never been a victim of cybercrime theft, you are apparently the exception and not the rule. New data shows that cybercrime is so common in Illinois that the state was ripped off by over a quarter billion dollars in just one year.
