Kansasn City, MO - This week the United States Marshals
Service collaborated with the Kansas City and Independence Missouri Police
Departments, the FBI and ATF to support the Kansas City No Violence Alliance
(KC NoVA) by lending a hand in tracking down some of the area’s most violent
and persistent offenders in Operation Street Audit Sept. 12-13.
By the end of the two day enforcement operation, officers
conducted well over 200 residence checks, arrested 34 people and cleared 170
city, state and federal warrants. These individuals were among those identified
by KC NoVA as being among the most violent and active offenders in Kansas City.
They have also been subject to previous enforcement action through KC NoVA and
KCPD but continue to commit violent crimes.
KC NoVA identifies the most violent and persistent offenders
and offers them assistance in breaking the cycle of violence through a variety
of social services. Those who choose a better path can look forward to a future
filled with options of their choosing. Those who do not will place their
families, their loved ones and themselves at great risk of becoming victims.
Some will pay the ultimate price for their choices. According to KC NoVA analysis,
the members of these identified criminal networks are 550 times more likely to
be murdered than the average American.
The U.S. Marshals Kansas City Fugitive Task Force is based
in Kansas City, Mo. and includes members of the U.S. Marshals Service, Kansas
City Missouri Police Department, Independence Missouri Police Department and
other federal law enforcement partners. The task force objectives are to seek
out and arrest fugitives charged with violent crimes, drug offenses, sex
offenders and other serious felonies.
Nationally the United States Marshals Service fugitive
programs are carried out with local law enforcement in 94 district offices, 85
local fugitive task forces, 7 regional task forces, as well as a growing
network of offices in foreign countries.
