On Thursday, June 12, 2025, the Cass County Sheriff's Office, in partnership with the Pleasant Hill Missouri Police Department, conducted a multi-agency sex offender compliance operation in Pleasant Hill. The operation was coordinated by the Sheriff’s Office Sex Offender Apprehension & Registration (SOAR) Unit and included support from the Missouri State Highway Patrol Sex Offender Registry Unit, the United States Marshals Office (Western District of Missouri), the Western Missouri Internet Crimes Against Children (WMICAC) Task Force, Missouri Probation and Parole, Cass County Digital Forensics Unit, the CCSO Criminal Apprehension Unit and Cass County Prosecutor’s Office.

During the operation, 14 registered sex offenders were checked. One case will require follow-up and two cases are under active investigation for potential non-compliance. Additionally, the Western Missouri Internet Crimes Against Children (WMICAC) Task Force examined electronic devices during this operation and reviewed 6.45 terabytes of data.

This collaborative effort highlights the continued commitment of local, state, and federal agencies to community safety and offender accountability.
