St. Louis Police Chief Joe Mokwa says eight officers who gave away the seized Cardinals tickets are suspended without pay for two weeks. He will recommend that their rank be reduced for at least a year. They could lose up to 20,000 each in pay as a result. In addition, a lieutenant and three sergeants face punishment for failure to supervise. Another three officers will be disciplined for violating an internal procedure. The names of those involved were not made public. Mokwa says the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's office will review the matter to recommend if any criminal charges should be filed.
