We were contacted by the media, who received a social media post message claiming the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office is doing a checkpoint near Joplin conducting “wellness checks” and asking people why they are out traveling.
Evidently this false allegation originated from someone’s Facebook post.
We are not, and will not be do anything like this. The Jasper County does not stop people for a “wellness check”.
If someone were to experience something like this we ask that you immediately contact Jasper County Dispatch Center at 417-359-9100.
