Missouri panel to review highway, water merger

State House Speaker Tim Jones announced Tuesday that an eight-member committee of representatives will review management, trooper training and a 2011 merger between the highway and water patrols. The legislation passed despite concerns from water patrol officials who warned lawmakers that it could hurt services. Prosecutors did not press criminal charges against Trooper Anthony Piercy in relation to Brandon Ellingson's death, but The Kansas City Star reported that the trooper testified that he did not have proper training to handle that situation on a lake.
