St. Louis has a civilian oversight committee to look into why so many deaths are happening at the city jail. Unfortunately, the committee can’t get answers to any questions, because the police union is filing a lawsuit against the city, and there are questions about what the board can and can’t find out. I’m not sure why.
If this were a novel, somebody would hire a private detective—Spenser, or Elvis Cole—who would nose around and find out what they needed to know. Maybe the committee should hire one.
