There will be no charges filed in the case of the missing $2,000 from the office of the Platte County Circuit Court Clerk. The money, which was part of a child support payment fund, was discovered missing in December. A lengthy audit of the office followed, but the audit was inconclusive in identifying a suspect, authorities report. “We’re not closing it as unsolvable. We’re leaving it as an open investigation,” said Major Greg Crader with the Platte County Sheriff’s Department.


Students in Christine O’Brien’s eighth grade class just recently finished their individual biography as their class reading project at Platte City Middle School. The students researched their lives by gathering pictures and talking with parents, friends and relatives. Proudly presented their piece of work from left are Stacy Quartochi, Sarah Glick, Amanda Tranbarger, Luke Sayers, Tina Hattlesohl, Bobby Moore, Tommy Dawson and sitting in front of the computer is Steven Brands.
