In a move described as “unprecedented,” Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is trying to overturn the convictions of a Kansas City police officer found guilty of killing a Black man.

An appeals court filing by the Missouri attorney general argues to overturn the conviction of former detective Eric DeValkenaere in the killing of a Black man in 2019.

Communications sent to Missouri Gov. Mike Parson obtained by The Star show the lengths that supporters of DeValkenaere have gone to fight against his conviction

Gov. Parson says Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker's letter on a potential pardon for Eric DeValkenaere was "irresponsible."

After the 2020 protests, KCPD made new rules for how officers should respond to protesters. Here’s what they could mean if Gov. Parson pardons the former police officer convicted of killing Cameron Lamb.

The governor said his office has had no conversations about pardoning the first Kansas City police officer convicted of killing a Black man. But he could do so, he said, even without an application for clemency.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson said he's not currently considering pardoning a former Kansas City detective who was convicted in the shooting death of Cameron Lamb in 2019.

Baker has served longer than any Jackson County prosecutor in modern history and will leave office Jan. 3, 2025. The next election for prosecutor is slated for November 2024.
