DeValkenaere, who is white, was convicted in 2021 of involuntary manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Cameron Lamb, a Black man, in December 2019. DeValkenaere shot and killed the 26-year-old as Lamb was backing his pickup truck into his garage. The shooting took place roughly nine seconds after DeValkenaere and his partner pulled up to Lamb’s residence.

DeValkenaere was sentenced to six years in prison but remained free on bond as his criminal appeal worked through the courts. The ex-detective surrendered to authorities in October 2023 when the Missouri Court of Appeals upheld his conviction. The Missouri Supreme Court declined to hear the case

Governor Mike Parson also went ahead with executing Marcellus Williams and pardoning Britt Reid(Andy Reid's son) who drove drunk and almost killed a 5 year old girl who is still dealing with the effects of a severe brain injury. Reid only did 1 year and change of the full 3 year sentence.

There's also this

Two notable exceptions were Mark and Patricia McCloskey. The St. Louis couple who gained national attention for waving guns at racial injustice protesters were pardoned by Parson on July 30, 2021, just six weeks after Mark McCloskey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor fourth-degree assault and Patricia McCloskey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor harassment.

And this

An analysis of available demographic data conducted by the Missouri News Network indicates that almost 90% of those who have been granted clemency by the governor are white.

Why other then familial ties. This is a serious question?

I’m born and raised in Missouri. Went to school in Missouri. Met my wife at school, who is also from Missouri. Life is great for me here. I have no ties anywhere else.

Bad things happen everywhere and bad people are everywhere.

Missouri is a red state, but like all other states, the population centers are blue. My cost of living is low.

What state do you live in?
