Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway escalates her efforts to remove St. Louis Sheriff Alfred Montgomery from office, filing a new charge alleging he cannot perform his duties due to his incarceration. Montgomery faces serious misconduct accusations, including ordering deputies to handcuff the citys acting jail director and refusing to transport detainees for medical treatment. Judge Steven R. Ohmer temporarily removed Montgomery, appointing former St. Louis police chief John Hayden as interim sheriff. Hanaway asserts Montgomery has forfeited his office, with uncertainty surrounding his replacements appointment.
