Lucas McKenna is a person we met through friends, and who initially comes off as a man with a sense of decency and honor. Lucas McKenna turns out to be a career criminal with no qualms about who he steals from, hurts, and otherwise victimizes in his quest to support himself at the direct expense of others.
Lucas McKenna stayed with us in our home on two occasions. This second and last time he came here as part of a state approved home plan by Missouri Probation and Parole, coming out of prison. We believed he intended to get himself straight and on his feet to live right for himself and a couple people he seemed to express care and concern for. We couldn't have been more wrong.
In the short weeks he stayed here, he showed himself to be a true career criminal and what the system calls a persistent offender, in going out nightly to burglarize and steal whatever he could, wherever he could, as often as he could manage to do it.
After we threw him out we found stolen property in his room from an unknown number of victims ranging from computer and electronic equipment to gear, drugs, and narcan doses stolen from a law enforcement officer's vehicle here in Springfield.
The full extent of his criminal activity was a thing we were not aware of until the end, but it ranged far and wide enough to leave us utterly shocked and stunned. In addition to his lack of paying rent as agreed, Lucas McKenna was under an agreement here to assist in the close care of my wife, who is disabled and in need to mobility assistance as well as other specific things that make daily life possible for her. He left her in situations of extreme pain for hours on end, including one night he left her on the floor for over 18 hours before we had to call the city Fire/Rescue to come and assist moving her onto the couch where she could find some comfort from his deliberate neglect.
The man's currency is lying, and his revenue to make a living is the direct expense and victimization of others. Anyone he can steal from, he can, will, and does. After evicting him, we learned from others, he had stolen from and victimized over a dozen other people he called friends when he did it.
So be aware, be cautious and avoid this person. Lucas McKenna will victimize you as well if you make the mistake of showing him kindness and allow an opening to become a victim to him.
We're normal people with big hearts, and have helped others in his position but have never had a predator like he proved himself to be, hurt us as bad as he did. He's shown no regret, no remorse and no second thoughts about what he did to us or anyone else. He literally lives at the expense of others, and so, I am sharing this for the benefit of others who may cross his path.
He's on active parole, so, with hope and luck, he won't be free and able to do more to people for much longer but the law isn't the direction we are going. Unfortunately, Missouri changed the laws in Jan. 2017 to make what he does to people a simple Misdameanor carrying little to no consequence and making the reporting not only pointless but counterproductive. All we can do is help others avoid the same fate.
