The charges say James Short, 26 — who had previously been charged in connection with the accidental shooting of a toddler — had sexual contact with a female inmate earlier this year while transporting prisoners at the City Justice Center.

    ST. LOUIS — A 32-year-old woman who previously admitted to destroying evidence in a 2023 homicide case is now charged in the murder. City prosecutors say Nichole Birr set up the drug deal that resulted in Tyrone Wilson's death on Aug. 2, 2023. Birr drove Wilson to the scene on Brantner Place in the city's Jeff-Vander-Lou neighborhood to meet with a potential marijuana buyer, court documents say. Wilson and the buyer argued, and Wilson was shot.
