Missouri Republicans champion juvenile justice reform
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – Gov. Mike Kehoe made juvenile justice reform a top priority, and Missouri lawmakers are taking action.
A new bill being considered by the Missouri House of Representatives aims to crack down on juvenile crime by giving prosecutors greater power to try young offenders as adults. The House committee could vote on the proposal as soon as next week. A companion bill is also moving through the Senate.
St. Louis Republican Rep. Brad Christ introduced a bill to reform the juvenile justice system.
“It’s been a problem that’s picked up in the state over the last four years, and that every law enforcement agency wants to figure out, every community wants to figure out,” Christ said.
Christ’s bill would expand prosecutors’ authority to try juveniles as adults and extend lockup periods for young offenders. The lawmaker believes this approach will break the cycle of repeated arrests and demonstrate that Missouri can effectively address juvenile crime.
“The juvenile system is set up for rehabilitation and that’s not what’s happening now,” Christ said. “We are seeing crime come down in the state with bills like last year and this year, and I think we’re set up to show the world what Missouri is made of and I think Gov. Kehoe has got us on the right path.”
Proponents argue the current system isn’t working. They point to cases where young people are arrested, released by police, and picked up again shortly after, a cycle they say perpetuates crime and puts communities at risk.
The proposal has garnered bipartisan support. Democratic representatives, including Rep. Rachel Proudie of St. Louis, voiced backing for the effort.
“All in all, I’m glad we’re focusing on this; this is definitely scratching an itch,” Proudie said.
However, not everyone is convinced the solution will work. Advocates for youth justice raise concerns about transferring young people to the adult system.
“Threatening children with adult prosecution does not reduce crime. It destroys futures and increases recidivism,” said Clinton Davis with the Missouri Justice Coalition.
While community groups have raised objections, no lawmakers spoke against the bill during the committee hearing on Tuesday morning.
Notably, Missouri’s juvenile recidivism rate—the rate at which young offenders reoffend—stands at less than 10%, significantly lower than the adult recidivism rate. Community leaders opposing the bill point to this statistic as evidence that the current system is already working.
“If you take a child from the juvenile system and place them in the adult system where it’s already failing, you’re not helping the child,” Davis said.

BURLINGTON JUNCTION, Mo. (KCTV) – A head-on collision on Highway 71 killed 3 people and seriously injured a 4th, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
State Troopers say the crash happened around 1:25 p.m. on Saturday, May 9, near the intersection of Highway 71 and 170th St. – about a mile and a half north of Burlington Junction.
Investigators say a 2026 Chevrolet Equinox, driven by a 59-year-old woman from Carthage, Texas, was heading north on the highway when it crossed the centerline.
The Chevrolet struck a southbound 2026 Ford Explorer head-on, according to MSHP. Both vehicles caught fire and came to rest in the southbound lane.
State Troopers note that the crash killed the Texas driver, a 67-year-old woman from Harlan, Iowa and a 76-year-old woman from Rockwell City, Iowa.
The Ford’s driver – a 72-year-old man from Rockwell City – was airlifted to Bryan West Medical Center in Lincoln, Nebraska, with serious injuries, according to first responders.
Troopers say all four people involved were wearing seatbelts at the time of the crash.
The cause of the collision remains under investigation.
