Workers may be eligible for larger tax refund

(From University of Missouri Extension)

Workers may get a larger tax refund this year because of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), which is one of the largest anti-poverty tools in the US. But to get it, you must file a tax return and claim it.

January 29, 2021, marks the 15th anniversary of EITC Awareness Day, a nationwide effort to increase awareness about the EITC and other refundable credits.

In 2020, 25 million workers received about $62 billion in EITC refunds. In Missouri, over $1.2 billion in EITC was refunded to over 476,000 families. The average amount received by Missouri families was $2,452.

If you worked last year and your income was less than $56,844, check out your eligibility for EITC. The EITC can provide up to a $6,660 refund when you file a return and have qualifying children. Workers with no qualifying children could be eligible for a smaller credit, up to 538 dollars.

Find out if you are eligible using the EITC Assistant (bit.ly/EITCASSISTANT); it’s available in both English and Spanish. The Assistant can help you:
find your filing status,
find out if you have a qualifying child or children,
verify if you are eligible for EITC, and
estimate the amount of your credit.

The federal income tax filing season will start February 12, 2021. Opening day is later than in the prior years due to the extensive software programming required by the legislation passed late in December 2020. Because of this delay, federal refunds that contain the EITC or other refundable credits will be issued in the first week of March at the earliest.

To provide Missouri residents with timely individual income tax information, University of Missouri Extension and the Department of Personal Financial Planning will host a one hour Zoom session at 1 PM on Jan 29th covering various tax changes from the CARES Act last March as well as the legislation from late in December. The presentation will also cover the EITC as it relates to the economic effects of the pandemic. To join, please visit this zoom link: bit.ly/MUEITC2021 (case sensitive)

Two men arrested after violent attack on woman at Baxter Springs home

(From the Cherokee County Sheriff's Office)

Two men were arrested after Cherokee County Sheriff's Deputies were called to a rural Baxter Springs home on Monday.

Around 9:30 a.m., deputies responded to a domestic disturbance after a woman had sustained injuries in a physical attack, where the alleged assailant is also suspected of discharging a firearm.

In partnership with the Pittsburg Police Department, the suspect, identified as 44-year-old Richard Stark, was found at a home in Pittsburg a short time later. Cherokee County Deputies obtained a search warrant for the Pittsburg home and seized a handgun along with other evidence.

Richard Stark was arrested and transported to the Cherokee County Jail on allegations of Aggravated Battery, Aggravated Assault, Criminal Threat and Criminal Damage to Property.

Also arrested and transported to the Cherokee County Jail was 19-year-old Kolby Stark, who is facing allegations of Obstructing Justice.

Local resources are available for those who experience violence from family members or loved ones.

Safehouse of Southeast Kansas can be reached at 1-800-794-9148 and can assist in providing victims and children with emergency housing. In addition, those seeking information on a Protection From Abuse or Protection From Stalking Orders can call 1-800-723-6953.

Joplin Police Department Weekly Activity Report

Arthur Brophy selected as Joplin Police Department Officer of the Month

(From the Joplin Police Department)

JPD is proud to recognize Officer Arthur Brophy, who was selected as the November 2020 Officer of the Month. Please join us in congratulating him on his achievement. His award was based on the following:

"On February 18th, 2020, Officer Brophy responded to an address in reference to a male subject that had passed away. Upon his arrival, Officer Brophy was assigned to stand guard as to not allow anyone entry into the residence. 

This is an important and sometimes hard moment for police officers as they must maintain scene integrity until a determination of cause of death has been determined. This incident proved to be one of the harder moments for Officer Brophy.

It was during this time that Officer Brophy was approached by the mother of the deceased who requested entry into the residence. Officer Brophy said, “I’m sorry momma, I can’t, I have to guard his body." 

The mother then advised Officer Brophy that he did not need to guard the body from her as she would not hurt him. Officer Brophy again said, “I’m so sorry momma." 

The mother, obviously distraught, advised Officer Brophy that if he did not let her through then she was going to punch him in the face. Officer Brophy replied, “if that will make things better you can go ahead”. It was at this time the mother laid her head on his shoulder and cried as Officer Brophy patted her back and consoled her.

The mother sent a letter to our department recently describing this interaction with Officer Brophy back in February. She advised that in her most devastated and heart-breaking time in her life Officer Brophy acted both as an officer and a friend. 

Since February, this mother has had the occasion to see Officer Brophy when he is working in the community. Officer Brophy always shows her a smile and asks, “How are you doing, Momma?" 

This encounter serves as an excellent reminder of the professionalism and excellent work our officers provide to our citizens each and every day. 

Thank you, Officer Brophy, for your service, hard work, and dedication to our profession and the citizens we serve. 

Respectfully,
Sloan A. Rowland
Chief of Police
