The Missouri Supreme Court on Tuesday placed a St. Louis couple who gained national attention for waving guns at racial injustice protesters on probation as attorneys.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. --
Mark McCloskey said Tuesday that he was disappointed by the ruling but happy the court chose to put the couple on probation, rather than suspend their licenses. McCloskey, who is among several Republican candidates running for the U.S. Senate, told The Associated Press he never expected the couple to be accused of moral turpitude before the state Supreme Court"for doing what we thought was right."
In a previous court filing seeking the suspension, Missouri Chief Disciplinary Counsel Alan Pratzel cited the McCloskey's guilty pleas to misdemeanors stemming from the June 2020 encounter with protesters. Pratzel's office is responsible for investigating ethical complaints against Missouri lawyers.
