Overview

• Newly released Frontenac, Missouri police bodycam video from a May 1 call shows Meghan King telling officers her ex-husband Jim Edmonds was emotionally abusive.
• Jim’s wife, Kortnie Edmonds, had dialed 911 alleging King entered the couple’s home without permission and caused a disturbance, according to the police report.
• Officers stopped King’s vehicle and warned they would detain her if she did not comply, with police paperwork listing Kortnie as the victim and King as the subject.
• King’s camp says she was dropping off their daughter’s dress at Jim’s request and that the incident was mischaracterized, while Jim’s representative denies the abuse claim and disputes any suggestion of impending sole custody for King.
• Municipal prosecutors later declined to pursue charges, and a civil consent order now requires 150 feet of separation at the children’s activities and limits social‑media references.
