of constituents who wrote letters calling for police defunding

St. Louis, Missouri, Mayor Lyda Krewson on Friday apologized after she earlier in the day shared the names and addresses of her constituents who had hand-delivered her letters calling for police reformation during a protest outside the St. Louis City Hall.

Krewson was asked toward the end of a Friday afternoon Facebook Live broadcast about an interaction she had with protestors outside the St. Louis City Hall. A woman watching the broadcast asked Krewson, a Democrat in office since 2017, about her conversations with the demonstrators, according to local news outlet Riverfront Times.

"I went outside City Hall, in the circle on the Tucker side of City Hall," Krewson said. "The conversation wasn't really a two-way conversation, I'll be honest with you, because there was a very loud, um, very loud response from the demonstrators. And so they gave me some papers about how they thought, uh — in fact, I'll go pick it up off my desk, hang on."

Krewson then grabbed a stack of papers from her desk, began reading from the letters, and sharing the names and addresses of the individuals who had written them to her.

1. I guess she missed the chapter in "Politics For Dummies" titled 'How To Go From Mayor To

Ex-Mayor In One Easy Step'.

2. It's disgusting, but once you send something to a public official,

it becomes public. Discretion be damned.
