Missouri Governor Mike Parson has decided to shorten the prison sentence of former Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid for a drunken driving crash that resulted in serious injuries to a 5-year-old girl. Reid, who is the son of Chiefs Coach Andy Reid, had pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated causing serious bodily injury and was serving a three-year prison sentence.

The commutation by Governor Parson has converted the remainder of Reid's prison term to house arrest, subject to specific conditions. These conditions include completing an alcohol abuse treatment program, weekly meetings with a parole officer and peer support sponsor, attendance at behavioral counseling, working at least 30 hours a week, and completing 10 hours of community service per month.
