Rep. Anthony Ealy, who won his third term to the Missouri House on Tuesday, was arrested by the Jefferson City Police Department on an assault charge. Cole County’s inmate portal said Ealy was arrested at 11:57 a.m. on Wednesday on a misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree domestic assault and disturbance of the peace. The assault charge carries a maximum penalty of one year in jail and a $2,000 fine. The disturbing-the-peace charge carries a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Missouri court records did not show that prosecutors had charged Ealy as of Thursday morning. The 32-year-old Democrat, who represents Grandview, remained in Cole County Jail on Thursday morning, according to an online directory of inmates.
