Show Notes
St. Louis judge deliberates on former Sheriff Alfred Montgomerys new trial request, following his removal from office for handcuffing an acting jail commissioner and disarming a former deputy. Montgomerys lawyers argue for a partial restriction instead of full removal, citing a 2018 law change and the incidents timing. State lawyers counter with willful neglect claims and missed deadlines. Montgomery faces federal trial on witness intimidation and harassment charges, with no set date. Interim Sheriff John Hayden Junior has been in office since October. Judges decision due by April 21st.
