The legal proceeding to remove the circuit attorney, Kim Gardner of St. Louis, Missouri. The Missouri Attorney General, Andrew Bailey updated the press of the latest information regarding the case against Gardner.
New pieces of evidence has been uncovered. They have found that Gardner has been taking nursing classes as opposed to fulfilling her current additional duties. She has been attaining a nursing degree and failed to charge new cases.
The court has issued several orders that uncovered the evidence.
The case now stands: In February, after she was called to resign and she refused, the legal proceeding began to protect the public and restore the rule of law.
After several weeks, others came forward.
A 121 page amended petition was filed. After 60 days, 5 pleadings and a hearing, Gardner asked for a different judge, which was an 'unnecessary delay" but they were committed to moving the case forward.
Yesterday the court issued several orders. Judge Bill Corrigan discussed the orders.
The proceeding were allowed to go forward in spite of Gardner's attempt to stop them.
Failed to prosecute cases, make charging decisions, keep families informed and for speedy trials were some of the issues discussed by both Bailey and Judge Corrigan.
Gardner had failed to show up for a murder trial and there has been clear negligence of her job and her office has been described as a "rudderless ship of chaos" and a number of attorneys have quit. She had even sent a representative in her case who had no knowledge of the situation to represent her and thought she could delay the proceedings, but the judge was hearing none of that and went forward with the indictment.
Gardner has 3 judges willing to hold her in contempt and she has been asked several times by the Attorney General to resign but has refused.
The trial for the George Soros funded circuit attorney will be scheduled for September 25th and the case is moving forward. Gardner's attempt to quash the subpoenas for documents have been denied.
