Armstrong Teasdale in the news
Armstrong Teasdale was hired by the St. Louis Police to look into the practice of police officers and the chief’s
daughter “test driving” impounded cars for months on end… This continues to be a big story locally, with the
FBI raiding towing companies and associated organizations. Police chief said that “during the investigation
that began in April '08, no one asked [him] for information about when he first learned of the freebies.”             
Good investigation Armstrong Teasdale!
“The daughter of St. Louis Police Chief Joe Mokwa and an untold number of police officers got free use of cars
from a company with a lucrative police contract to tow and store cars, the department admitted on Friday.”

“The officers and Aimie Mokwa for years have been able to take previously impounded cars from St. Louis
Metropolitan Towing, and drive them for weeks or months at a time with no strings attached.”
Teasdale finds that:  "no one did anything illegal or improper"
