Missouri sheriff and 2 deputies charged in connection with alleged plot to help a father kidnap his child

TL;DR

A Missouri sheriff and two of his deputies were arrested Thursday and charged in connection with an alleged plot to help a father kidnap his daughter from her mother after an argument last month, charging documents show. When Sheriff Burkett believed the mother was traveling to a relative’s house in neighboring Washington County, he allegedly told a 911 dispatcher to send sheriff’s deputies to “just park at the residence” but not enter the property, the documents say. All four suspects were being held in Washington County Jail with Burkett’s bond set at $500,000 and bond for the three others set at $400,000
