Looks like no one took over.....I have read the Missouri HIGHWAY PATROL is now in charge. In case people do not understand, The Highway Patrol is allowed to patrol ONLY Highways (state and federal). They have NO JURISDICTION over town streets, buildings or property. They are NOT State Police, who have jurisdiction anywhere. Where I copped at in Ohio, we had the Highway patrol take control of the state highways and the Sheriff’s department take control of domestics, burglaries and general mayhem while we fought riots or funerals for officers killed in accidents or otherwise. If they aren’t rioting on State Highways, I doubt very much the HIGHWAY PATROL would know what the hell to do any ways.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol will take over the supervision of security in the St. Louis suburb that's been the scene of violent protests since a police officer fatally shot an unarmed black teenager, the governor announced Thursday.
Well then the governor is who to blame.
Law enforcement truths:
Want to see someone F up a traffic accident investigation? Call the sheriff.
Want to see someone F up a homicide investigation? Call the highway patrol.
