If Wesley Bell is willing to sell cases as the St. Louis County prosecutor, it is not unreasonable to believe he has sold his soul and the 1st congressional district in exchange for contributions, too. How many cases has he sold in 5 years? How many criminals roam our streets?

Scott Rosenblum (defense attorney) and Wesley Bell (County prosecutor) are really good friends. Rosenblum, et al, $2500 on 2/18/2021; JRogers $1000 on 2/18/2021; AJimenez $1000 on 2/18/2021; SRosenblum $1000 on 3/4/21.🤔 Bell hires Rosenblum’s son in the prosecutor's office 👇🏾
