After 22 years of dedicated service to the City of Wentzville, we congratulate Detective Huntoon on her retirement from the Wentzville Police Department.
Detective Huntoon began her career with the City in August 2004 as a commissioned Park Ranger, bringing with her three years of prior law enforcement experience from the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.
In 2011, she was awarded the Missouri Municipal League Innovation Award for creating the drug take-back box program, which is still located in our department lobby today and has since expanded to thousands of police departments across the country.
In 2013, she transferred to Patrol, where she served for three years before being selected to transfer to the St. Charles County Drug Task Force in 2016.
Following that assignment, she returned to Patrol in 2018 and was later selected as a School Resource Officer in 2019, serving Boone Trail, Stone Creek and Journey Elementary Schools. During her time as an SRO, she also served as a S.T.A.R.T. instructor, teaching substance, tobacco and alcohol resistance training to every 5th-grade student in the Wentzville School District, making a lasting impact on youth across our community.
In 2022, Detective Huntoon returned to the St. Charles County Drug Task Force, where she served until her retirement. Throughout her career, she received multiple shout-out awards and an Award of Excellence in recognition of her hard work.
Her investigative work had a significant impact both locally and nationally. In 2024, she received a Chief’s Commendation and a Letter of Appreciation from the Eastern District of Missouri Assistant United States Attorney for her role in a major narcotics investigation involving a suspect distributing approximately 100 pounds of methamphetamine monthly through Wentzville into the St. Louis region. That case expanded into a nationwide operation, culminating in coordinated enforcement actions across six cities and 34 local arrests, all tied back to her original investigation.
In 2025, she was recognized with the High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA) Award for her work on a three-year investigation that resulted in the seizure of millions of dollars in drug proceeds and thousands of pounds of cocaine, fentanyl and methamphetamine. That investigation led to multiple federal indictments involving cartel members operating in the United States and Mexico.
Outside of her law enforcement duties, Detective Huntoon demonstrated a strong commitment to helping others. She served on the executive board for the Gateway Hemophilia Association, supporting children and families with blood disorders, and on the executive board for Missing in Missouri, an organization dedicated to locating missing persons and identifying deceased individuals. She also played a vital role in the development of Della’s Law, aimed at improving missing persons reporting and the use of the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs).
Detective Huntoon’s passion for serving on the St. Charles County Drug Task Force and her relentless work combating illegal narcotics had a direct impact not only in Wentzville and St. Charles County, but in large-scale investigations reaching across the country. Her dedication, professionalism and commitment to public safety have made a lasting difference in our community.
We thank Detective Huntoon for her 22 years of service and her unwavering commitment to protecting the citizens of Wentzville. We wish her the very best in retirement.

Safe driving starts with simple choices: Eyes up. Phone down. Slow down. Give space.
Historically, the highest days for motor vehicle accidents are Friday, Thursday and Tuesday. Increased traffic and busy schedules can contribute to distracted or rushed driving.
Stay alert and give yourself extra time on the road.

Awesome
🛑 VOTE NO ON MONEY GRABBING PROPS FIRE and EMS 🛑 Don’t be misled by the inaccurate FIRE and EMS mailers—they are deceptive and misleading. Claims that Props FIRE and EMS will “reduce property taxes to zero” are simply not true. What propositions FIRE and EMS actually do is impose a permanent 2% SALES TAX INCREASE (to fund exorbitant salaries, bonus plans, pension plans, paid Healthcare for retirees and spouses, and unnecessarily extravagant stations). Every election season FIRE and EMS campaign for more and more Taxpayers money. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! Vote NO on Props FIRE and EMS. PLEASE SHARE WITH EVERYONE!!
Happy Monday, March 30 Wentzville!
Here are all the calls we responded to over the last week. Be safe and have a great week!

Improper lane use is a frequent cause of crashes. Stay in your lane, signal before changing lanes and make sure it is safe before moving over.
Small decisions behind the wheel help keep everyone on the road safe.

Tell that to the 🐖 who never use them

Speeding is a common factor in traffic accidents. Driving faster reduces your ability to react and increases the severity of crashes.
Take a few extra minutes to reach your destination safely. Slow down and drive responsibly.
