Howell County Sheriff's Office Seeks Public's Help in Locating Fugitive Casey Oshaughnessy

The Howell County Sheriff's Office is actively seeking information on the whereabouts of 42-year-old Casey Orion Oshaughnessy, who is currently a fugitive with multiple outstanding warrants.

Oshaughnessy is wanted for failure to appear in court on charges including a Class D Felony for tampering with a motor vehicle and possession of a controlled substance.

She has been evading law enforcement since 2023 and has additional warrants from other counties.

Originally from Mountain View, Missouri, Oshaughnessy has also resided in West Plains and Summersville, Missouri.

Her previous residences extend to Wichita, Kansas; Kalispell, Montana; and Saint Paul, Minnesota.

The Howell County Sheriff's Office urges anyone with information that could lead to Oshaughnessy's arrest to contact them at 417-256-2544.

Alternatively, tips can be emailed to Investigations@howellcountysheriff.gov.

Community assistance is vital in ensuring the safety and security of our neighborhoods.

Do not attempt to apprehend Oshaughnessy yourself; instead, provide any information to the authorities promptly.

In related news, the Howell County Sheriff's Office has been actively pursuing fugitives through their "Wanted Wednesday" initiative.

For instance, in May 2025, Clayton Schafer, who was featured in the first "Wanted Wednesday," was apprehended in Taney County after a tip-off led to his arrest without incident.

Similarly, in June 2025, Rodney Wayne Evans was highlighted for failure to appear on a probation violation related to unlawful possession of a firearm.

These efforts underscore the department's commitment to bringing fugitives to justice and maintaining public safety.

Community members are encouraged to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to local law enforcement.

Your cooperation plays a crucial role in keeping Howell County safe.
