The other officer alerted the Jackson County Drug Task Force, which launched an investigation.
In June, prosecutors said, Kamer accepted $450 from the other officer with the understanding that Kamer would use it to buy steroids from a source in St. Louis.
The other officer never received the steroids, prosecutors said, because Kamer was unable to obtain them.
