The trial in the Missouri attorney general's effort to remove St. Louis' elected sheriff came to a close on Tuesday after more than 30 witnesses took the stand over a week. Here's what happened.

Former Master Sgt. Bryan Robins said he heard acting Jail Commissioner Tammy Ross say something like "go ahead and ‘cuff me'" during a confrontation with Sheriff Alfred Montgomery.

The group People Not Politicians is gathering signatures to prevent a new redistricting plan from going into effect.

Federal case creates "disturbing" challenges while weighing St. Louis sheriff’s removal, judge says during the third day of trial.

The complaint, filed with the Office of Chief Disciplinary Council, says the Attorney General didn’t have the authority to list the Missouri General Assembly as a plaintiff in a redistricting lawsuit without its input.

The second full day of the trial over the Missouri attorney general’s attempt to permanently remove St. Louis Sheriff Alfred Montgomery got off to a rocky start filled with yelling, accusations of retaliation and testimony from deputies.

The first full day of St. Louis Sheriff Alfred Montgomery’s removal trial brought testimony from deputy jail boss Tammy Ross, former Capt. Anthony Anderson and others.

A judge delayed the long-awaited trial to determine whether St. Louis Sheriff Alfred Montgomery should be removed from office because he was in jail, but a late Tuesday agreement will allow the sheriff to be in court moving forward.

The court filing also may signal the end of a decades-long alliance between Black Democrats and Republicans on how the St. Louis-area district has been drawn.

Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway has also argued St. Louis should abolish the office altogether.
