The last paragraph (different article)is interesting.
“Aldermen voted Wednesday night to reject Mayor Brant Walker’s reappointment of Chief Jason “Jake” Simmons after video showing two male inmates being sprayed while in a city jail holding cell was broadcast this week by KMOV-TV, The (Alton) Telegraph reported Thursday. The video appears to show the two juveniles sitting passively on a bench before the officer enters the cell, squirts the spray and then walks away.”
“”I am extremely disappointed that someone would release a video including juveniles to anyone outside of the legal process,” Simmons said in a written statement.
The police chief said he learned of the incident in March but didn’t receive a written report until two months later. He added that officer Vince Warlick, a 19-year veteran, remains on the force but is no longer assigned to the city jail.”

He was probably standing next to the DA watching it Live
