Missouri Governor Commutes Ex-Chiefs Coach Britt Reid's DWI Prison Sentence

Missouri Governor Mike Parson commuted the remaining three years of former Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid's prison sentence for a drunken driving crash that seriously injured a 5-year-old girl, converting it to house arrest with conditions including alcohol abuse treatment completion, weekly meetings with a parole officer, and 30 hours of work per week. Reid had been driving while intoxicated at a high speed, causing a traumatic brain injury to the girl and injuring five others. Parson, a Chiefs season ticket-holder, has granted clemency to over 760 people since 2020, including Reid and the St. Louis couple who waved guns at racial injustice protesters.
