Officer Phylicia Carson died pursuing a suspect who reached over 100 mph; the suspect faces aggravated fleeing and second-degree felony murder charges.
- On August 31, 2023, Osage Beach police officer Phylicia Carson died during a high-speed chase, and A&E's Ozark Law returned Season 2 without her.

- Suspect Christopher Wehmeyer crashed, was arrested and faces homicide-related charges including aggravated fleeing resulting in death and second-degree felony murder; additional charges were added nearly a year later and attorneys requested a venue change in the Camden County criminal case.
- The Farm Bureau Town & Country Insurance Company of Missouri paid $100,000 in the settlement, which will go to Grant Carson, husband, and their six children: Teighan, Raye, Emlyn, Roma, Chevy and Rhenner.
- Carson's family remembered her outdoors life on the family farm, deer hunting, and dirt biking, while her obituary highlighted her encouraging notes and scriptures in the Lake Ozark and Osage Beach communities.
