The First Capitol News has learned that Criminal Charges are expected to be filed against two O’Fallon Police Officers.
The unnamed Officers are accused of obtaining the criminal record of a subject and then releasing that information to another party.
We were told an investigation is being conducted by the office of St. Charles County Prosecuting Attorney, Jack Banas and that information may have been presented to the St. Charles County Grand Jury.
We were unable to obtain any comments from the Prosecutor’s office but our source told us to expect charges to be filed against the Officers.
The Grand Jury consists of 15 residents of the County selected by the presiding Judge. They meet every other Friday and their meetings are secret. Only twelve members vote on indictments and only nine votes are needed to indict.
The term of the current Grand Jury expires on October 21st.
