Missouri
Entries whose effect landed somewhere in Missouri (MO) — a city, a county, a campus, a detention facility — whichever government acted. Federal conduct inside Missouri counts here.
This is not the same set as Missouri's jurisdiction page, which records the 15 entries where Missouri's own government was the acting authority, wherever those events happened. The two overlap and neither contains the other: place and power are separate facts, and statewide acts appear there and not here.

Kansas City security officers forcibly removed and handcuffed stadium-subsidy critic at public hearing
On August 18, 2026, Kansas City, Missouri City Hall security officers forcibly removed, pinned to the ground, and handcuffed Darrell Miller, a Kauffman Stadium worker and Missouri Workers Power member, during a City Council Finance, Governance and Public Safety Committee hearing on a proposed $600 million public subsidy for a new Royals stadium, after he objected that stadium supporters were allowed to exceed the two-minute public comment limit while critics were held strictly to it. Minutes later the committee voted unanimously to advance the funding ordinances, and police later issued Miller a municipal summons for trespassing and assault.
Kansas City transit authority signed secret contract authorizing facial-recognition profiling of bus riders
On July 24, 2025, the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority (KCATA) signed a three-year, auto-renewing contract with SafeSpace Global, a penny-stock company carrying a $23.7 million accumulated deficit and a going-concern warning, authorizing AI cameras that would generate facial-recognition profiles of bus riders, capture their video and audio, and use the resulting data to train the company's algorithms. The contract barred both parties from public disclosure and KCATA had no policy governing the biometric data; the signed agreement remained outside the public record for a year, until The Kansas City Defender obtained it through a records request.

Missouri Department of Mental Health left man found incompetent to stand trial in county jail for years awaiting treatment bed
A Marshall Project investigation, published August 24, 2026 and republished by the Missouri Independent, found that the Missouri Department of Mental Health left Carl Henry Louis -- a man found incompetent to stand trial -- confined in the Clay County jail in Liberty, Missouri for roughly two and a half years, from his 2021 arrest until January 2024, awaiting a state psychiatric bed for court-ordered competency-restoration treatment. The wait included months after a judge suspended Louis's criminal case in August 2023 and ordered him committed for treatment, during which the jail continued to hold him because no bed was available. Missouri's own figures show the statewide waitlist for competency evaluation or restoration grew from 27 people in 2016 to 549 by July 2026, with at least two deaths in jails on the waitlist since May 2025.
