Former deputy alleges St. Louis sheriff made him roll dice to keep his job
SUMMARY: Former St. Louis Sheriff’s Deputy Tony Kirchner is taking legal action after alleging that his fate within the department hinged on a roll of the dice. He released audio recordings purportedly of Sheriff Jack instructing him to roll a seven with golden dice, threatening the denial of his leave request otherwise. Kirchner managed to roll a seven on his second attempt, after which the sheriff reportedly accepted the outcome and left the room. These allegations follow reports of deputy misconduct, including an incident involving the jailing of a commissioner who tried to question an inmate linked to a reported rape. Kirchner, who claims he was terminated, plans to file a discrimination lawsuit.

St. Louis Sheriff Alfred Montgomery finds himself at the center of four scandals after less than two months on the job.

DeWitts and Mozeliak booed during Cardinals’ 2025 Opening Day intros
SUMMARY: During the St. Louis Cardinals’ Opening Day introductions, Chairman Bill DeWitt Jr., President Bill DeWitt III, and President of Baseball Operations John Mozeliak faced substantial booing from fans. This reaction stems from a disappointing offseason and two years without postseason play. Despite hints at a youth-driven reset, the roster remains largely unchanged, fueling frustration. Mozeliak, set to leave his role by the end of 2025, acknowledged the crowd’s reaction humorously. Meanwhile, the Cardinals’ payroll has decreased significantly, raising doubts about ownership’s investment commitment as they aim to develop from within. The team led 4-3 against the Minnesota Twins after six innings.
