Two St. Louis City law enforcement officers were terminated after working security for U.S. Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), according to KMOV-TV.
The outlet reported that in April when St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones, Bush, and others toured the city's jails, Tylance Jackson and Maurice Thompson were present to protect the congresswoman.
St. Louis Sheriff Vernon Betts told the TV station that the two men breached policy by failing to obtain approval to work a secondary shift as security guards. Betts said that they were warned not to do so again, but his office was later contacted by the VA police in Jefferson Barracks who said that the two individuals were again working security for the lawmaker, according to the outlet.
