Coalition Against Police Crimes and Repression
Members of the Coalition Against Police Crimes and Repression held a press conference in front of St.Louis City Hall June 13,2006 to call attention what they claim are serious violations to the state's Sunshine Law by the St. Louis Police Board.
Jamala Rogers and John Chasnoff said that the version of a Civilian Review Board reflected in a General Order signed in May by Police Board President Chris Goodson is different from the one presented and approved at the board's April meeting.
The Coalition said these changes are significant, and that they were not made in an open meeting is a violation of Missouri's laws on open government.[1]
