2. Police blotter.

Local law enforcement agencies that maintain a daily log or record that lists suspected crimes, accidents, or complaints are required to make certain limited information available to the public, including the time, substance and location of all complaints or requests for assistance, the time and nature of the agency's response, information relating to the underlying occurrence, the name and age of certain victims, and a general description of the injuries, property or weapons involved. Mo.Rev.Stat. §  610.200. This provision has been amended to eliminate a 30‑day waiting period for release of this information to the general public. The media has been one of a limited class of those privileged to see the daily logs during the waiting period.
